Directions
To make this chocolate cake with cream, you need to follow these steps:
Step 1: Whisk the cake and pour it into a mold
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and the sugar until they are well combined and fluffy. Add the milk, the cocoa, the vanilla, and the baking powder and whisk again. Gradually add the flour and whisk until you have a smooth and thick batter. Pour the batter into a cake mold that is covered with butter paper.
Step 2: Bake the cake in a preheated oven
Preheat your oven to 170 degrees Celsius and bake the cake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Take the cake out of the oven and let it cool completely.
Step 3: Mix the cream ingredients and cook until it boils
In a medium saucepan, whisk the milk, the cornstarch, and the sugar until they are well combined and smooth. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Once it boils, reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the cream is thick and smooth. Add the butter and stir until it melts. Turn off the heat and let the cream cool slightly.
Step 4: Add the whipped cream powder and mix well
When the cream is warm, add the whipped cream powder and mix it well with a blender. You should have a creamy and fluffy mixture. Transfer the cream to a bowl and refrigerate it until it is cold and firm.
Step 5: Take out the cake and place it on a plate
Take the cake out of the mold and place it on a large plate. You can cut the cake into two layers if you want to have more cream in between.
Step 6: Soak the cake with milk and pour the cream over it
In a small bowl, mix the milk and the Nescafe until they are well combined. Soak the top of the cake with this mixture and spread it evenly. Then, pour the cream over the cake and spread it evenly as well. You can use a spatula or a knife to smooth the surface of the cream.
Step 7: Prepare the chocolate sauce and add the dark chocolate
In another medium saucepan, whisk the tea milk, the sugar, the cornstarch, and the cocoa until they are well combined and smooth. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Once it boils, reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the sauce is thick and smooth. Turn off the heat and add the dark chocolate. Stir until the chocolate melts and the sauce is glossy and smooth.
Step 8: Pour the sauce over the cream
Pour the warm chocolate sauce over the cream and spread it evenly. You can use a spatula or a knife to smooth the surface of the sauce.
Step 9: Refrigerate the cake and serve it
Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight until it is cold and firm. Then, take the cake out of the refrigerator and cut it into slices. Serve the cake with some fresh fruits, nuts, or whipped cream if you like.
