400 grams Dairy Milk Chocolate or other non cooking chocolat
Directions
You can either bung it all in a food processor and whizz it altogether. OR cream the sugar and marg together with a spoon the old fashioned way. An electric hand mixer is also useful for that bit.
After creaming the sugar and margarine/butter, sieve in the flour, cocoa powder adding 2 eggs at a time and mix thoroughly.
Grease and flour 2 sandwhich cake tins. Fill with cake mixture. Cook gas mark 4 for about 25mins, check to make sure done with skewer.
When baked, turn out onto a wire rack and allow to cool.
Make butter cream using a handful of marg/butter, lots of icing sugar and cocoa powder to colour. If needed you can add a dash of milk to help it come together.
Smear the butter cream on one of the cakes.
Break up the dairy milk bar into a container which is placed over boiling water. Melt the entire bar.
Place the other cake on top of the butter cream filling to make a sandwich cake.
Pour the melted chocolate over the top of the cake, smoothing with palette knife.
Option 1: eat whilst chocolate is still warm and spend hours sucking the molten chocolate from the roof of your mouth and fingers
Option 2: allow to cool and cut later.
DO NOT put this in the fridge or the chocolate will set hard and you won't get the knife thru it...someone will get more than their fair share of chocolate. Which is fine if you get it lol
You can also use the same basic mixture to make cupcakes. Chocolate and Vanilla works really well with these!
