PREPARATION:

2. Note: For 1 cup of passion fruit juice, without adding water, you need 2 to 3 units of passion fruit, depending on the size of the fruit.
3. Wash and open the passion fruits. Place a fine mesh strainer over a bowl, add the passion fruit pulp – 1 fruit at a time – and, using a spoon, press the pulp until all the juice has been removed.
4. To make 1 entire recipe (4 servings) you will need to get 1 cup of passion fruit juice. Adjust this amount based on the number of servings you are making.
5. Sift the flour into a bowl and set aside.
6. Grease the pan with butter or oil and sprinkle with flour.
7. Preheat the oven to 180°C.

PREPARATION:

Passion fruit cake:

1. Place the homemade passion fruit juice into the blender.
2. Add the eggs and sugar and beat until you obtain a smooth cream.
3. Add the oil and beat to combine.

5. Finally add the yeast.
6. Transfer to the greased and sprinkled pan.
7. Place in the preheated oven at 180°C and cook for about 45 minutes.
8. To check if it is cooked, do the toothpick test: place the toothpick in the center of the cake, if it comes out clean, it is ready.
9. Turn off the oven, remove the cake and shake it to see if it comes loose from the pan.
10. Let it cool.
11. In the meantime, prepare the chocolate syrup: ideally, cover the hot cake with the warm syrup.

Chocolate sauce (cakes):

1. In a saucepan, mix all the ingredients: chocolate, sugar, butter and water.
2. Place over low heat and stir until it boils.
3. Continue to cook the syrup, stirring constantly, for about 2 more minutes, until it thickens slightly – do not skip this step.
4. Turn off the heat and continue whisking the syrup for about another 2 minutes to cool.

2. Pour the hot chocolate syrup over the cake.
