1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
6 ounces Butter
7½ ounce Caster sugar
3 larges Eggs
3 Dessert spoons cocoa powder
6 Dessert spoons hot water
6 ounces Self raising flour
Filling/Topping:
6 ounces Icing sugar
3 ounces Butter
Vanilla
3 ounces Good'chocolate

Directions

Mix the cocoa and the water till you get a gorgeous choclatey mixture.Leave to cool. Cream the marj and the sugar till creamy and fluffy. Beat the eggs and then slowly add to the fat/sugar mix Add the cocoa stuff, then fold in the flour. Bake in two lined 7inch cake tins for 20-25 mins at 375F until firm (and risen) Meanwhile lick the bowl!!!!! No!! I mean; Meanwhile cream the butter and melt the choc in a bowl over a pan of hot water or in the microwave, whatever takes your fancy Mix the choclate into the butter and then add the icing sugar, leave this to cool a bit, but don't chill!!!!! Incidentaly I use Lindts 70% cocoa solids choc to make the topping filling stuff, the higher the cocoa solids the more *wow* this is!!! When the cakes have cooled sandwich the whole lot together with about half the filling stuff and then plaster the rest on the top. And thats it. I had to make three at the weekend because people kept comming and complaing that they hadn't had a bit and someone else had eaten the last bit, you have been warned!!! :-) Cake:
