Ingredients

Servings
For the Recipe
- 8 pieces of Cadbury Bournville Dark Chocolate
- 2 tsp Cadbury cocoa powder
- 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 ¾ cup sugar
- 1 piece egg
- ¾ cup oil
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- ¾ cup heavy cream
Directions

Whisk flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and baking powder in a bowl.

Mix egg, oil, and vanilla essence until smooth. A hand mixer works great here.

Pour in the boiling water. The batter will be very liquid. There is no need to panic. This is exactly what creates that moist, tight crumb. Whisk gently until combined.

Pour into two lined 20cm tins. Bake at 180°C for 25–30 minutes.

A skewer inserted into the center should come out clean. Let them cool completely before frosting.

For ganache: Place the chopped Bournville chocolate in a heatproof bowl.

Pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Let it sit for 5 minutes without stirring.

Gently whisk from the center outward until glossy and smooth. Stir in the butter.

Cover the cake with chocolate ganache. Let it sit for a few minutes and enjoy.
For a mirror-like shine on your Bournville ganache, avoid using a whisk. Use a silicone spatula and stir in small circles in the center.
