Yep, you can totally be a non-fan and just enjoy cake to enjoy this one. Saludos desde Argentina. I love portal. Your email address will not be published. Photo via Wikia. Yield: 1 8-inch round 3-layer cake. Catherine Clark is a Chicago native sharing noteworthy things she sees and attempts to make in the world. Forgetting the polyester resin, GLaDOS calls for one cup semisweet chocolate chips, three-quarters of a cup of butter, one and two-thirds cup granulated sugar, nine egg yolks, and two cups of all-purpose flour.
Without any instructions aside from an entry on how to kill someone with your bare hands, I was able to deduce from the ratio of ingredients and lack of leavening agents that the Portal Cake is, in fact, a chocolate chiffon.
The chocolate and butter would be melted together, the egg yolks and sugar foamed; then the chocolate-butter would be drizzled in and the flour folded in last. Given that the cake is little more than an elaborate Easter egg, I was surprised at how well it translates to the real world.
Thanks to the emulsifying power of yolks, it's a relatively stable foam, making the recipe accessible even to beginners and producing a cake that's custardy-rich, with a sweet cocoa flavor reminiscent of German chocolate. Which is perfectly in line with the official filling: a can of prepared coconut-pecan frosting enriched with whole eggs.
To that, I can only raise my middle finger to GLaDOS and make something similar, with a custard of condensed milk, eggs, coconut, and pecan. Of course, what's inside hardly matters if the outer appearance isn't spot-on. According to GLaDOS's recipe, the large, irregular chunks that encrust the cake are likely "sediment-shaped sediment," which I've taken the liberty of replacing with milk chocolate ground in a food processor.
It's finished with a few swirls of whipped cream and Marasca cherries, which have a tart flavor and boozy bite that help to offset the sweetness of the chocolate. In bringing the Portal Cake to life, based on the actual recipe given in-game, it's my turn to take perverse satisfaction in conquering one final test, one that no one but a pastry chef could have puzzled out.
In addition to the simple mention of the Cake, an actual recipe is given. The recipe can be found on several computer screens after Chell's escape from death.
The recipe often contains unusual e. The cake is referenced again in Portal 2, but much more infrequently. The earliest reference to it can be seen on computer monitors; it's recipe is displayed amidst gibberish. Jump to: navigation , search. View source.
