Pistachio Chocolate Cake

Hey Steemian,

How are you? Hope you had a great time during this Christmas. As for me, I wasted my time eating, sleeping, spending time with my family and friends, eating and sleeping again, reading. Stuff like that. But you know: time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time! Oh, how much I love this quote and its truth behind it!
Of course, this wasted time requires some goodies to eat, some champagne or wine or beer poured into your glasses!
My newest obsession is this Pistachio Chocolate Cake.

It looks amazing and has a rich texture and full of chocolate. Some of the best things in this world are in this sweetbread: PISTACHIO and CHOCOLATE.
And now, let's do some magic.

INGREDIENTS
Cake

• 6 large eggs
• 6 tbs flour
• 6 tbs sugar
• 10 g baking powder
• 50 g cocoa
• 100 g sunflower oil
• vanilla extract

Topping

• 100 g dark chocolate
• 30 g butter, melted
• 50 g pistachio

1. Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius/mark 2.
2. Beat together the eggs and sugar until the mixture doubled and it's fluffy.
3. Sift the flour and the baking powder.
4. Add sunflower oil, vanilla extract and cocoa powder.
5. In a loaf pan, greased with baking sheet, add the mixture and bake for 45 minutes or until skewer comes out clean.
6. Meanwhile, in a bowl, melt the chocolate and butter over bain-marie.

When the cake is completely cool, pour over the top chocolate and sprinkle some pistachio for crunchiness and color.
Now, I'm going back to my lazy program...

Till next time,
