2 ½ dl of powdered sugar

1 ml measuring spoon of vanilla powder

2 eggs

1 ½ dl of flour

½ dl cocoa

1 ml measuring spoon of salt

Lemon peel, for example shredded orange peel or lime.

Nuts, for example 1 dl chopped walnuts or pistachios

2 ml measuring spoon of crumbled chiliflakes

1 tea spoon of ground cinnamon

2 tablespoon of  brandy

1 sliced banana (put on the sliced bananas when the batter has been poured in the form



This is how you make it

1. Preheat the oven on 200 degrees Celsius. Butter and flour a form with removable edge, 22 cm in diameter.

2. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Mix together the powered sugar, the vanilla powder and the eggs fluffy in a bowl.

3. Mix together the flour, the cocoa and salt, stir it into the egg mixture with the butter.

4. Pour the mixture in the form. Bake in the middle of the oven for 17-20 minutes until it’s loose in the middle but the edges are finished.

5. Flavoring the mess!


The difference between the Swedish and english recipe is that in the english recipe you preheat the oven on 220 degrees Celsius.

It have semisweet chocolate instead of cocoa, and also uses cayennepepper, and uses less sugar but the semisweet chocolate probably have a lot of sugar in it.

You melt the semisweet chocolate and the butter on top of boiling water. As you can see this is a completely different technique compared to the Swedish one.

Then they combine the eggs and the sugar in a bowl mix it together until it gets very thick. In the Swedish recipe they wanted it to be fluffy. Then put in the flour, pepper and salt after they have combined the eggs and sugar.

Then they combine the egg mixture with the chocolate mixture in a bowl and pour it in to a cake pan. That’s what they did in the Swedish recipe but now they did it with different ingredients.

Then they put it in the oven for 14-15 minutes in stead of  17- 20 min.  Then they cool it in the refrigerator in 1 hour.
