This cake doesn’t need a special occasion – it turns any ordinary day into one. From the moment the smell of chocolate fills the kitchen to the first bite, it truly lives up to its name.
Ingredients
For the sponge cake:
- 3 eggs (or 4 smaller ones)
- 100 g sugar
- 200 g margarine
- 100 g cooking chocolate
- 4 tablespoons flour
- 1 baking powder
For the cream:
- 500 ml sweet cream
- 200 g cooking chocolate
Preparation
Sponge cake
- Whisk the eggs and sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Add the melted margarine and chocolate, then mix well.
- Stir in the flour combined with baking powder.
- Pour the batter into a baking pan lined with baking paper.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes (depending on the oven).
- Check with a toothpick – if it comes out clean, the sponge cake is done.
Cream
Stir continuously until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture starts to simmer.
Final steps
While the sponge cake is still warm, pierce it in several places with a toothpick.
Slowly pour the hot chocolate cream over the cake. The cream may appear thin at first, but it will thicken as the cake cools.
Let the cake cool to room temperature, then place it in the refrigerator for several hours so the cream can fully set.
Decoration
Decorate as you like – with grated chocolate, whipped cream, chopped nuts, or colorful sprinkles.
Serving
Serve the cake well chilled, once the cream has fully set and blended perfectly with the sponge layer.
