Brownie is a transliteration of Brownie, which means walnut chocolate cake. It is a very classic and common family snack in America. It is said that a fat old black mother made a soft chocolate cake with an apron in the kitchen, but she forgot to send the cream first. It was a failed cake. This kind of cake is moist and dense, and it has become an unexpected delicacy. This lovely mistake makes Brownie the most representative cake of American families. Because of its dense sweetness, mellow and rich chocolate flavor, the most subtle place lies in the bitter taste of cocoa, which is crispy with walnut kernel, and the slight bitterness of walnut melts into the sweetness of cake. It's a perfect match! Some people say that the taste of brownies is very philosophical, and the sweet and sour taste is really suitable for describing the experience of life.
(2) Black forest
Black forest cake is a famous dessert in Germany. It combines sour cherry, sweet cream, bitter chocolate and mellow cherry wine. The perfect black forest cake can withstand all tastes. Black Forest Cake is known as one of the specialties of Black Forest, which means "Black Forest Cherry Cream Cake" in German. Authentic black forest cake is not black at all, and contains no dark chocolate.
The embryonic form of black forest cake first appeared in the southern black forest area. According to legend, whenever cherries are harvested, farmers will not only make extra cherries into jam, but also generously stuff cherries in the interlayer of the cake or decorate the surface of the cake as decoration. When making cream for cakes, a lot of cherry juice will be added. When making cake blanks, cherry juice and cherry wine will also be added to the batter. This cake, mainly made of cherries and whipped cream, has become the so-called "black forest cake" since it spread from the black forest to other places.
Black forest cake became famous in 1930s, and now it has become the most popular dessert in Germany, and its reputation has spread all over the world. In many places in Europe, black forest cake can always appear on the menu, whether it is a star-rated hotel or an ordinary restaurant.
At present, most pastry chefs use a lot of chocolate when making the Black Forest. The dark chocolate chips on the cake surface are reminiscent of the beautiful black forest, so many people think that the black forest is named after it. In fact, the real protagonist of the Black Forest cake is the delicious and rich cherry. In the past, there were cases in Germany where consumers sued the black forest cake for its low cherry content. Therefore, the German government has made relevant regulations that the cream part of the Black Forest cake must contain at least 80 grams of cherry juice.
