The three-layer chocolate cake every birthday deserves — deep cocoa, fudge frosting. The kind of simple, generous cake that disappears before it cools. Great as-is, or warmed for twenty seconds with a scoop of ice cream.

Ingredients

Butter3 tbsp
Heavy Cream1/4 cup
Salta pinch
Eggs3
Sugar1 cup
Baking Powder2 tsp
Vanilla Extract1 tsp
Dark Chocolate2 cups, chopped
Cocoa Powder1/2 cup

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 175 C / 350 F, grease the tin and dust it so nothing sticks later.
2
Cream the butter, sugar and butter together until the mixture turns several shades lighter.
3
Fold the flour and cocoa powder through in two additions; overmixing makes a dense crumb.
4
Bake until the top springs back when pressed, 28-38 minutes depending on your tin.
5
Once cool, slice and serve, or ice it generously and let the frosting set.

Chef's tip

Resting a custard or pudding overnight deepens the flavour and sets a cleaner slice.
