1 For the cake: preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4. Grease and line the bases of two
20cm (8 inch) round cake tins.
2 Using the beater on speed 8, beat the butter to soften. Add the sugar and beat until pale and
fluffy. Gradually beat in the eggs and vanilla essence, adding a little flour, to prevent curdling.
3 Sieve the remaining dry ingredients into the bowl beating in at speed 2. Blend the chocolate
and milk together and then beat into the cake mixture.
4 Divide the batter between the two tins and bake for 30 minutes. Cool in the tins for 10 minutes
and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool.
5 To make the topping, place the chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water until
melted. Remove from the heat.
6 Using the whisk at speed 12, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Fold the chocolate into the
cream and use to sandwich the cakes together and spread the remaining mixture over the top
of the cake. Decorate with the dark chocolate shavings. Chill before serving.
