Step by step

  1. Whisk the eggs together with the sugar, milk, and oil, then place it all in a bowl along with the flour and baking powder. Mix everything well to avoid lumps.

  2. Grease a (heart-shaped) mold with a little butter and pour the previous mixture into it.

  3. Preheat the oven to 180ºC and bake for about 20 minutes.

    Remove from heat and let cool.

  4. Meanwhile, finely chop the garlic cloves and place them in a saucepan over low heat along with 100 grams of sugar and 100 cl of water, until the garlic is tender and we obtain a colorless syrup.

    Remove from heat and set aside.

  5. Next, we melted the chocolate coating together with the butter.

  6. We remove the cake from the mold and, using a silicone brush, soak the entire surface with our garlic syrup.

    We need to soak it well so that it absorbs flavor, sweetness, and becomes nice and juicy.

  7. We place it on an oven rack and with the help of a spatula, we spread the chocolate coating (step 5) evenly over the entire surface, collecting the excess chocolate from the tray.

  8. FINISHED DISH:

    We add the broken raspberries all over the surface of the cake in order to give it color and flavor contrasts.

– We can decorate with white chocolate shavings, fresh strawberries, physalis….
– For real chocolate lovers, we can accompany it with a good cup of hot chocolate with cinnamon.
– Since it is a sweet sponge cake, and the garlic cloves are confit in syrup, the combination is very subtle and pleasant, as well as healthy.
– We can make our sponge cake more moist by beating the egg yolks and sugar, and separately whipping the egg whites to stiff peaks, and then gently mixing the whole mixture with the sifted flour.
– When serving, we can accompany our garlic and chocolate heart with violet ice cream, rose ice cream, or any flavor we like.
