This cake is placed into a cold oven, then baked slowly at gradually increasing temperatures. This produces a very nice texture with a delightfully crunchy crust. To powder the Mexican Chocolate tablet, I used a Cuisinart Mini-Chopper. Break the tablet into sections; then, using the sharp blade of the Mini-Chopper, process each section at high speed until powdered.
