Method
- Prepare a round cake pan and butter it. Lay a parchment paper in the pan. Meanwhile, preheat the oven at 175°C.
- To prepare the base or the batter of the cake, in a big bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and soda, cocoa powder, and salt.
- In another large bowl, whish the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, sugar, and oil until it turns smooth.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients and gently mix.
- Pour the hot boiling water and keep mix until smooth. Please note that the batter must smooth and watery.
- Pour in the batter in the pan and bake for around half an hour. Cool it completely.
- To prepare the butterscotch cake, over a medium heat, in a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar.
- Slowly pour the heavy cream, and stir until the sugar melts and dissolves.
- For 5 minutes, let it simmer. Stir occasionally until it thickens, then remove from the heat, and add a pinch of salt and vanilla extract.
- Allow it to cool
- Now to make the chocolate ganache, in a saucepan, heat the heavy cream and let it simmer. Pour the cream in the chopped chocolate.
- After the preparation rests for a minute, whisk the same until it turns smooth. Let it cool.
- To assemble the cake, place the cake on a plate and pour the butterscotch sauce on top. Take time and let it soak. You can add a second layer of the cake base and repeat the process. At the end, top the cake with the prepared chocolate ganache. For the extra crunch top this off with some nuts.
