When Kilian finished Hardrock 100 I wanted to be there celebrating with him, but due to another race I had in mind to run myself I could´t be there.
So I decided to bake him a cake, and what is better than a big tasty chocolate cake to someone who loves chocolate.
Ingredients:
0,2 liter brown sugar
0,1 liter white sugar
0,1 liter of honey
4 egg
0,3 liter milk
0,5 liter flour
0,15 liter raw cacao
3 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
1 teaspoon salt
200 gram dark chocolate
200 gram butter
Topping:
250 gram dark chocolate
0,3 liter cream
1 teaspoon butter
Set the owen at 180 degrees
whisk butter sugar and honey.
Add the yolk
Add all the dry ingredients
Add the milk
Add the chocolate ( melt it before)
Add the egg white (whisk them hard before)
Use round forms, and now you can chose if you want to make 3 or 2 cakes, I did 2 bigger ones. If you make 3 it will be more glazing on and in the cake, which is yummie! Bake in the owen fro 15-20 minutes, less if you make 3 cakes.
The Icing / Glazing
Warm the cream, it shall almost boil.
Add the chocolate
Add the butter
When the glazing is cold it´s easier to spread on the cake.
You spread the glazing in-between the cake layers and on top of the cake.
On the top of the cake I garnished with summer berries.
Voila!
Enjoy!
