Sponge
200 g plain flour
2tsp baking powder
40g cocoa
280g caster sugar
40 g melted plain chocolate (cooled)
80g marg
2 eggs
240 ml milk
Mix flour, baking powder, cocoa, sugar & butter
in a food processor until you have a sandy consistency then add half the
milk and blend.
Mix eggs, melted chocolate and rest of the milk
together in separate bowl and add to the batter. Give a good mix and divide into 2 sandwich tins and bake for around 25 mins at 160 and cool on wire rack.
Buttercream
500 g icing sugar
125 softened unsalted butter
30 g cocoa
2 tablespoons of milk
Mix butter and icing sugar together then add cocoa and milk.
Beat for 10 mins.
Sandwich the 2 cakes together with the buttercream, then spread the rest on the top.
Toppings
I used 1 Boost bar chopped, 2 packets of Malteasers,
popcorn, mini marshmallows and white chocolate buttons but you could go crazy with any topping you like, then drizzle 100g of melted milk
chocolate over the top.
