2️⃣ Chocolate Cream
- Beat the butter for 3–4 minutes until fluffy.This step incorporates air into the frosting, giving it a lighter, smoother texture.
- Add powdered sugar + cocoa.Mix slowly at first to avoid a cloud of cocoa, then beat until fully combined.
- Add melted and cooled dark chocolate.The melted chocolate enriches the frosting, deepening its flavor and creating a silky consistency.
- Add 4–6 tablespoons of milk to achieve a smooth cream.Adjust the quantity based on your preferred thickness—thicker for piping, slightly thinner for spreading.
3️⃣ Assembling the Cake
- Place the first cake on a serving plate.Ensure it is level; trim the top slightly if needed.
- Spread a generous amount of chocolate cream on top.Push the frosting to the edges to create even layers.
- Place the second cake layer on top.Align it carefully to maintain a neat shape.
- Cover the entire cake with cream.Use a spatula for smooth sides or swirls for a rustic finish.
- You can sprinkle chocolate chips or grated chocolate on top.This adds texture and a visually appealing finish.
