chocolate cake

A building block cake. Great for birthday cakes.

50 g high quality cocoa powder
100 ml milk
100 ml cream
200 g raw sugar
125 g butter
2 eggs
150 g flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp vanilla sugar
good pinch salt

Combine cocoa, milk, cream, half of sugar, butter over low heat. Whisk eggs with rest of sugar, baking powder, vanilla sugar, salt until tripled in volume. Fold cocoa mixture gently into egg, alternating with flour.

Bake in 200' oven for about 30 mins and remove just before cake is fully set in the middle. It will complete cooking as it cools.
