A bakery-style moist cake with a cocoa sponge soaked in simple syrup and covered with generous chocolate cream. A favorite for birthdays and special occasions.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the cake batter

10 min

Beat the eggs and sugar until pale. Mix in the cooking oil and milk. Sift in the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder, and mix until smooth.

2

Bake the cake

40 min

Pour the batter into a greased pan and bake in a preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the cake before the edges dry out; a slightly moist base absorbs the syrup more easily.

3

Make the syrup and soak the cake

10 min

Bring the sugar and water to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Slowly spoon the cooled syrup over the hot cake.

4

Make the cream

10 min

Beat the cold cream with the sugar until thick. Gradually add the melted chocolate, continuing to mix.

5

Frost and chill the cake

5 min

Cover the syrup-soaked cake with the chocolate cream and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least two hours, then slice and serve.

Reminder

Pour the syrup over the cake while it is still hot, as soon as it comes out of the oven, so the moisture spreads evenly. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), eggs, and milk (milk, cream, and butter). After frosting the cake, refrigerate it for at least two hours so it slices more neatly.
