Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Nonstick cooking spray 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled) 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt 1 large egg yolk 1/4 cup buttermilk 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 cup fresh or thawed frozen blackberries (5 ounces) 1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened 1 pint raspberry sorbet, softened

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat an 8-inch springform cake pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk in egg yolk, buttermilk, 1/4 cup warm water, oil, and vanilla. Pour batter into pan and bake until cake pulls away from sides and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack, 1 1/2 hours. Cut one or two pieces parchment paper 1 inch taller than pan side and place between cake and inside of pan, overlapping if necessary (parchment should fit snugly around entire circumference of cake).

Place blackberries in a medium bowl and lightly mash with a fork. Stir in vanilla ice cream. Working quickly, spread ice cream mixture in an even layer over cooled cake with a small offset or rubber spatula. Freeze until ice cream is very firm, 2 hours. In a small bowl, stir sorbet until spreadable. Spread in an even layer over ice cream and freeze until set, 1 hour (or, covered, up to 1 week). To serve, unmold cake and peel away parchment.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       12/13/2014   One of my go-to desserts, easy, beautiful and delicious. In the recipe instructions you have left out the 1/4 cup of warm water to be added to the buttermilk. Please correct - I'll have to fix this in my "cookbook" too as I copied from your original - the cake has been fine but I did wonder why the batter was a bit thick.
