Ingredients

Cake:
250 gr butter
250 gr sugar
4 eggs
1 package vanilla sugar
180 gr flour
2 tsp. baking powder
250 gr chocolate, melted
6 TBSP water

Chocolate Cream:
150 gr chocolate
2 cups heavy cream
vanilla sugar

Method

1. The original recipe calls for the chocolate being melted but you can put the chocolate in the fridge, then throw it into a Braun kitchen machine together with the flour (the knives are in the machine). This is much easier.
2. Add all the other ingredients and put the dough into a greased spring form
3. Bake at about 170°C for one hour.
4. Remove cake to rack, let cool

Chocolate Cream:

1. Slowly melt 150 gr chocolate
2. Whip heavy cream, then drip melted chocolate into cream, keep beating, adding vanilla sugar to taste.
3. Decorate cake with chocolate cream

Note: You may want to decorate with shavings of white chocolate or, for kids, with smarties.
