Cream and Chocolate Cake with Soft Vanilla Cream

in ,

The chocolate cake with soft cream is one of those desserts that win you over at first sight and at the first bite and I’ll tell you why!
It has a soft, enveloping cocoa base and a fragrant vanilla cream that makes it irresistible.
It’s perfect when you want to prepare a showy but simple dessert, ideal for special occasions or to surprise with something really indulgent.

The cream and chocolate dessert recipe was enjoyed by my guests and my son Andrea, who begged me to make it again as soon as possible and, above all, to increase the amount of cream made with heavy cream, rice starch and those little vanilla seeds from the vanilla that make the difference!

The recipe for the cream and chocolate cake is simple even if it requires several steps and preparations, but it guarantees a dessert suitable even for a birthday or a party because it combines two flavors that everyone certainly loves!

If you prefer, keep the chocolate batter and decorate it with a white chocolate whipped ganache, or with a milk cream and you’ll have two very indulgent variations of the cream and chocolate cake!

    Then add the melted chocolate mixture.

    Sift the flour with the baking powder and the cocoa and combine the dry ingredients with the previous mixture.

    Grease and flour the pan (or line the bottom with parchment paper), then pour in the batter, level it and bake the cream and chocolate cake at 347°F for about 30/35 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool and then unmold the cake.

    Let it infuse for about 5 minutes then strain the liquid.

    Beat the egg yolks with the sugar using electric whisks.

    Add the flour sifted with the rice starch.

    Temper the mixture with the milk and cream mixture scented with vanilla.

    Put the cream in a saucepan and cook over moderate heat, stirring continuously, until it thickens in a few minutes.

    Cover the cream with plastic wrap directly on the surface and then place it in the refrigerator to cool.

  • Remove the cream from the refrigerator and stir it well.

    Put it into a piping bag with a large tip and decorate the cake as you prefer.

    Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately at the table!
