Hi Mummy,
the weather is horrible, no more snow and sunshine.

To cheer us up Katja decided to bake a chocolate cake. I think chocolate cake is the perfect thing when the weather is so bad.

For this cake you need

300 g dark chocolate
140 g butter
4 eggs
200 g sugar
pith of 1 vanilla bean
100 g flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
50 g sour cream



First we had to melt 227 g chocolate with butter. The rest of the chocolate had to be chopped.



Than we had to stirr the eggs with sugar and vanilla to a tight foam, for at least 5 minutes. The melted chocolate and butter had to be mixed into eggs and sugar, than flour, baking powder and cocoa powder, than sour cream.  Finally we had to stir the hacked chocolate into the dough.



The cake had to bake for 20 minutes, 175 °C.

Ready!



It's really delicious

Katja said that if we would cut the cake into really small pieces you could call it "cookie". (It would be a good idea because the cake has lots of calories).

Bye
