Preparation of chocolate cake
- Stir the cocoa and water in a bowl, lightly whip it and let it cool off. Whip the butter and vanilla until it sponges. Go adding the sugar little by little and whip until you have a thick cream. Continue whipping and go adding the eggs one by one.
- Sift the flour, corn starch, baking soda and salt together. Alternatively it’s easy to incorporate the flour and cocoa mixture, into the egg one.
- Distribute the dough into 3 oiled and floured molds (23 cm. diameter) and bake for 20-25 minutes or until sure it’s well cooked. Let it rest in the mold for 5 minutes then unmold over a metal grill, so the bread will cool entirely.
- Chocolate Frosting: Place the butter in a bowl and whip it until it sponges; add the egg, the egg yokes and the glazed sugar. Then add the cooled off melted chocolate and whip until you have a thick frosting. Join the 3 easy pieces with the whipped cream and cover the sides and surfaces with the chocolate frosting.
