Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 40 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour

Place the sugar, cocoa, butter, water, sour cream, vanilla sugar, and chocolate in a saucepan and melt the chocolate over low heat. Wait until everything is thoroughly melted, stirring frequently if necessary. Then let it cool slightly in a bowl. Stir in the egg, flour, and baking powder. Pour the mixture into a springform pan and bake in a preheated oven at 175 degrees Celsius for 40 minutes. A skewer test would be helpful! Then remove the cake from the pan, cut into small pieces, and place in glasses. Garnish each glass with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and, if desired, with whipped cream and an almond biscuit. Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar.
