Hubby's birthday cake

What are birthdays without cakes? Not good ones i suppose 😂

I am the one who usually bakes the cakes for all our family birthdays so i couldn't miss hubby's birthday.

The Ingredients u will need for this cake are:
1 cup butter, room temperature
1 3/4 cups sugar
5 eggs, room temperature
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 heaped tbsp. cadbury's drinking chocolate powder
3 heaped tbsp. cocoa powder
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. vanilla essence
1 1/4 cup milk

Instructions

Sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Add the cocoa and drinking chocolate into the flour. Set aside.

Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time. Making sure each egg is perfectly mixed before you add another.
Remember to scrape down the sides of the bowl after adding another egg. Add vanilla.

Add flour and buttermilk in three alternative pours, starting and ending with flour. Mix on slow speed. At this stage do not over mix, just combine until the batter is incorporated. Over mixing can ruin your cake.

Once everything is well incorporated, divide the batter between your cake pans. Bake in preheated oven for twenty-five to forty minutes. You can use a toothpick to check if it's done.

After the cake cools completely, u can start decorating it. I only used nutella and nuts and biscuit that i bought from a local store near my house.

I applied nutella on one of the cake and layered it with another cake as i baked in two 8' inches pan. Then i applied nutella all over the cake and topped it with cashewnuts, walnuts and biscuits that i chopped roughly.

Give this recipe a try, u wont need to try any other chocolate cake recipe i believe..
