And I prepared this simple chocolate cake just like that, or rather, in honor of the beginning of the weekend, to the delight of myself and the children.

The chocolate base (biscuit) turns out beautiful, porous, velvety. It can be easily cut into 2-3 cakes (I cut it into 3 pieces) and smeared with your favorite cream.

Cream for this simple homemade chocolate cake, I also chose the most affordable - sour cream. For cream, you should take thick (fatty) sour cream. But I will tell you one thing in secret, I used the usual store-bought 15% sour cream. I just put the sour cream on four layers of cheesecloth in advance, put the cheesecloth with sour cream in a sieve, and the sieve on the pan and let the excess moisture drain from the sour cream. It took several hours, or you can just leave the sour cream in this form overnight in the refrigerator. The result was a rather thick sour cream, reminiscent of buttercream in consistency.

Although the recipe for making this homemade chocolate cake is quite simple, I still painted it in detail and provided with a bunch of step-by-step photos.

Cooking time: 90 minutes

Number of servings - 8-10

Ingredients:

  • 5 eggs
  • 200 g flour
  • 200 g + 50 g sugar + 1 glass
  • 30 g cocoa
  • 135 ml sunflower oil(without smell)
  • 100 ml water
  • 0.5 tsp soda
  • 0.5 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 600 g sour cream

The first step in preparing this wonderful homemade chocolate cake is to turn on the oven to warm up to a temperature of 170 degrees. And all because the dough will be cooked for no more than 10-15 minutes, the oven during this time will just reach the desired temperature.

In a saucepan, mix 30 g of cocoa powder and 200 g of sugar.


Add another 135 ml of sunflower oil and 100 ml of water to cocoa with sugar.


We send the saucepan to the stove and over medium heat, stirring constantly, heat the mixture. It should not be brought to the boil. Then leave the chocolate mass to cool for 5 minutes.


In the meantime, let's get on with the rest of the ingredients. We drive 5 eggs into a container and add 50 g of sugar to them.


Using a mixer, beat the eggs for at least 5 minutes (or it may take a little more time). The egg mass should turn white and increase in volume by 3 times. This is a prerequisite for obtaining a high-quality and beautiful chocolate biscuit. Just try to beat the eggs well and a great result is guaranteed.


Adding egg mass into the already slightly cooled chocolate mass. Lightly mix them.


I weighed 200 g of flour and added half a teaspoon of salt, soda and baking powder to it. Everything was well mixed.

Add the flour mixture to the bowl with the egg-chocolate mixture. Slowly mix the dough until completely homogeneous. At the end, I even went through the dough with a mixer (on low speed).


We cover the bottom of the form with parchment. Pour the dough into the mold. The diameter of my detachable form is 19 cm.


We bake chocolate biscuit 45-50 minutes. We check its readiness with a toothpick.


We don't want to turn off the oven. We take the chocolate biscuit out of the mold and cut off its “cap”. We send this hat to the oven to dry slightly. We need crumbs to decorate the chocolate cake. We will get this crumb from the “cap” that has dried up in the oven. The “drying” time for this piece of biscuit is approximately 10 minutes.


Let's leave the biscuit alone and start preparing sour cream. To do this, simply mix 600 g of sour cream with a glass of sugar.


The sour cream turned out to be moderately sweet, tender, airy and thick enough to stick to the cakes and not spread.


We take the dish on which we will serve our homemade chocolate cake and cover it with two sheets of parchment. The sheets should overlap slightly in the center of the dish. You can see it in the photo. So it will be easy to get them (literally, pull them out) from under the cake after all preparations are completed.


Visually divide the cream into three parts and grease the cakes, the top of the cake and a little side.


This is how handsome he ended up.

We combine the whipped proteins with the chocolate mass and gently mix with a spatula.

Pour the resulting dough into the prepared form (cover the bottom of the form with baking paper) and bake at a temperature of 170-180 until cooked. Approximately 30-40 min.

The approximate weight of the biscuit is 500 gr.

For a cake, you need 2 such biscuits, so we bake another one of the same.

We cut each biscuit in half lengthwise and cut off a little the edges so that they are even.

Now let's prepare the custard. To do this, beat 5 yolks and 0.5 cups of sugar until a homogeneous light mass. Add 4 tbsp. l. flour and beat again. Now gradually add warm (not hot!) Milk (1 liter). Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved and put in a water bath. Stirring constantly, bring the cream to a thickening. Add 80 g of butter 0.5 tsp. vanilla, mix and remove from the bath. Cool the cream, stirring occasionally.

Chocolate cakes (4 pcs.) And cream are ready.

Now let's assemble the cake. Lubricate each cake generously with cream.

When the whole cake is assembled, coat its sides.

We send the cake to the refrigerator for 5-6 hours, so that it is infused and soaked.

After the specified time, we take out the cake. First, carefully, evenly and beautifully coat the sides of the cake. And send the cake to the refrigerator.

In the meantime, for the chocolate biscuit cake with fruits, you need to prepare the chocolate icing. For its preparation you will need: 2 tbsp. l. sour cream, 2 tbsp. l. sugar, 2 tbsp. l. cocoa powder and 50 g butter.

We cover the top of the cake with icing and make beautiful chocolate smudges.
