How to make chocolate cake (with an ironic taste)

You will need: brown sugar, cacao powder, plain flour, milk, 

vanilla powder, eggs at room temperature, salt, baking powder

and most important: chocolate

Step one is the preparation

Heat up your oven to about 175-180 degrees celsius

And cover the bottom of a cake tin with baking paper (optional)

Now over to Step two

Break 200 g of your favourite chocolate into bits 

(I used both milk chocolate and dark chocolate)

Take 1 dl of cocoa powder

(or more if you are using only milk chocolate

it's up to you!)

And cover the delicious chocolate 

Step three, put 1-1½ dl brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of plain flour

and ½ teaspoon of salt into a small saucepan

Whisk in some milk so the ingrediences mix together nicely

Now turn the stove plate onto medium heat

And continue pouring milk into the pan while whisking 

(you should add a total of 2,25 dl milk)

After a while the mixture will start to thicken 

and this is where it becomes very important to stir constantly 

(you don't want to burn the whole lot and have to start over do you!)

When it looks something like this you are almost done

with whisking and hurting your arm (for a little while at least)

Pour the thick mixture into the large bowl with chocolate and cocoa

Mix it together quickly until it looks like this phenomenal darling 

Add 2 egg yolks (save the whites for Chist's sake!)

and 1 teaspoon of vanilla powder

Mix together and it will look shiny like this

Welcome to Step four

Now take the 2 eggwhites and add 1 more

into a smaller glass bowl, and also add 2 "krm" of baking powder

This may seem strange but hold on baby!

Start whisking like a lunatic until the clumps of baking powder dissolve

and the egg whites start foaming up

The baking soda helps the air bubbles to form, and that is exactly what we want here

because you are going to whip the egg whites to a thick foam

It should look somewhat like this within a few minutes if you are doing it correctly

Now add ½ dl of sugar (not all at the same time)

and continue your hard admirable work

You are not finished with this until you can flip the bowl

upside down over your head without getting it all in your face

Add the meringue into the large bowl and mix together well

Remember, this is not a tiger cake in the making

Now the chocolate cake batter is complete

and by now it should smell heavenly 

Are we at Step 5 already? Oh well! 

Pour the whole thing into the cake tin you prepared before

Start boiling 1½-2 L water

While waiting: eat the batter left in the bowl (important!)

When the water is warm, put your cake tin in a larger pan 

with minimum 5 cm depth, and place in the lower part of your oven

Pour the water into the larger pan

Close the oven and wait for your chocolate cake to bake 

This will take by estimate 20-30 minutes depending on your oven

When the cake is ready the surface should be solid enough to touch

and it should spring back instantly

Did you think it was ready to eat now?!

I am sorry to tell you that it is supposed to settle 

for at least 1-2 days in the fridge before consumption

Cover it with some plastic foil after it has cooled

Good luck with the wait, mate!
