Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 55 minutes

Preheat the oven to 170°C top/bottom heat (150°C fan-assisted). Melt the butter and dark chocolate coating in a saucepan, stirring frequently; do not allow to boil. Then let it cool slightly. Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the sugar until fluffy. Slowly add the dark butter mixture to the fluffy eggs. Add the flour, cocoa, and baking powder, and fold the dark chocolate pieces into the mixture, if desired. Bake the cake for 25–45 minutes, depending on the baking pan used. Test the doneness with a skewer. Then let it cool. Cut the cake crosswise into three pieces. For the cream, melt the cream and chocolate coating; do not boil. Add the alcohol to taste. Then let the cream cool until it sets. Spread the cream alternately on the layers, layering them on top of each other. Finish with the last layer and refrigerate for about 1 hour. After that, there are different options: you can either sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar or you can cover it with chocolate coating, light or dark as you wish.
