CAKE CHOCOLATE GLAZE From: viv@tauon.ph.unimelb.edu.au (Viviane Buzzi) Date: 24 Dec 1994 00:22:16 -0500 from "Grand Finales" by Vogue Australia: Make 1 day ahead of serving. Serves 8-10 (it's VERY rich). To make the cake: beat all the ingredients with an electric beater until they are thoroughly mixed and smooth. Oil a 23 x 10 cm (9 x 4 inch) loaf tin and spoon in the mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight. To make the glaze: melt the chocolate with the cream in a bowl set over hot water. Beat in the butter and allow the mixture to cool until it achieves a spreadable consistency. Top unmould and ice the cake: run a knife around the loaf tin and unmould the log onto a flat platter. Cover it with the chocolate glaze and place in the refrigerator until set firmly. Chestnut log must be stored in the refrigerator. Serve garnished with marron glace.
