3. Prepare the Chocolate Cream Topping
- In a large chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until it begins to thicken.
- Add powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. Continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat.
- Spread the chocolate whipped cream over the cooled, filled cake in a thick, even layer.
- Add your desired toppings—extra chopped chocolate, chocolate chips, curls, or a drizzle of syrup—for a truly “death by chocolate” finish.
Serving & Storage
Chill the cake for at least 1–2 hours before slicing for clean layers and full flavor absorption. Store leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 4 days. The flavor intensifies over time, making it even more irresistible the next day.
