Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Melt dark chocolate (200 grams) in a water bath.
Step 2
Beat the butter with the eggs (on low speed, using a mixer), gradually adding the sugar.
Step 3
Continue beating, add sour cream, and slowly pour in the chocolate (beat until smooth).
Step 4
Mix the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder), sift, and add to the mixture, stirring until homogeneous.
Step 5
Grease the baking pan with butter and dust with cocoa (shake off the excess), pour the batter into the pan and place it in the preheated oven. Bake at 320°F for 1 hour and 20 minutes, using an 18 cm pan.
Step 6
Once the cake is ready, remove it and let it cool slightly, then transfer it to a rack to cool completely, and then cut it in half (if it rises significantly, cut into 3 layers).
Step 7
For the cream, melt dark chocolate (200 grams) in a water bath with the addition of butter.
Step 8
Whip the cream with sugar until frothy, then slowly add the chocolate and beat until smooth.
Step 9
Soak the first (and second) layer with cream (just a light coating is enough), and use the leftovers to coat the top and sides.
Step 10
You can decorate with anything: grated chocolate, sprinkles, whipped cream, condensed milk.
