CHOCOLATE CAKE

For the cake

Ingredients :

180g butter ~ softened

200g cake flour

200g castor sugar

10ml (2 teaspoons) baking powder

40g cocoa powder

2 jumbo eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla essence

150ml soured cream

Method :

1. Preheat the oven to 180 celcius. Grease and line 2 small cake tins.

2. Put all the cake ingredients into a mixer and mix until you have a smoothe batter.

3. Transfer the batter equally to the two prepared tins and bake for 35 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.

4. Cool.

For the Icing

200g white chocolate

100g butter

30ml golden syrup

100ml sour cream

300g (575ml) icing sugar

Method :

1. Melt the chocolate and butter together with the syrup and sour cream and cool before beating in the icing sugar.

To assemble

Slice each cake in half. On your serving plate, put the domed top half of one of the cakes upside down and spread the cut edge with a little of the icing. Layer on the other halves with icing in between, using the other domed side for the top. Ice around the whole cake, and decorate with white chocolate strips and shapes.

To make the chocolate strips for around the cake, melt a 200g slab of white chocolate and spread it quite thinly and evenly in a long strip (of about 10cm x 60cm) or a large square (of about 20cm x 30cm). When dry to the touch, but still malleable, cut it into smaller strips of 10cm x 4 cm or 5 cm each.
