Implementation

For the cake

  1. After sifting the flour, measure it and sift it again with the baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  2. Beat the butter in the mixer and add the sugar in portions. Continue beating for a few minutes and add the eggs one by one.
  3. Then add the melted chocolate. Pour a teaspoon of instant coffee in the milk and add it to the mixture one after the other with the flour mixture.
  4. Stir the mixture lightly. Add the walnuts.
  5. Put the mixture in two round forms, buttered and floured. We do this to make two cake trays. Bake the cake in a medium oven for 45 minutes at 200 degrees with heating elements.

For the chocolate glaze

  1. In a pan heat the cream with butter for a few minutes to get a boil.
  2. When the butter melts, take the pot off the stove. Pour the cream into the chocolate pieces and mix until it becomes a uniform mixture.
  3. Let cool for a few minutes. If you want, store it in a sterile jar as it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

For assembling the cake

  1. After the cake trays have cooled and we unmold them, we prepare the filling. Take half the amount of chocolate icing and combine it with the raspberry puree.
  2. Then fill the first tray with this mixture and cover with the second. Cover the cake with the remaining chocolate icing and serve.
