This very chocolaty and crunchy-tasty box cake reminds with its touch of peppermint a little bit of "peppermint chocolate chip".
For a 35 cm box shape you need the following:
ingredients
For the dough:
- 250 g soft butter
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 250 g brown sugar
- 6 eggs
- 300 g spelled wholemeal flour
- 1 pck of baking soda
- 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder
- 300 g crunchy chocolate-mint cereal
- 300 ml of milk
- Almond flakes for spreading the shape
For the chocolate sauce:
- 100 g dark chocolate couverture
- 100 g peppermint cream chocolate
- 125 g of coconut oil
preparation
- Preheat the oven to 190 degrees top / bottom heat (convection: 175 degrees).
- Mix with the hand mixer the soft butter with the oil and the brown sugar and stir in the eggs one by one.
- Then mix the flour with baking powder and cocoa and add the crunchy chocolate-mint cereal.
- Mix this flour-cocoa-muesli mixture alternately with the milk with a mixing spoon under the butter-sugar-egg-mixture.
- Now pour the dough into the well-greased box-shaped tin sprinkled with almonds and place them on the middle rail in the preheated oven.
- The cake is baked for about 50 to 55 minutes (make a stick sample!).
- After baking, let it cool slightly in the mold, only then it is released from the mold and allowed to cool on a wire rack.
- For the chocolate sauce, couverture, chocolate and coconut fat are melted over a hot water bath and the cooled cake is covered with it. At will, the cake can be sprinkled with some cereal.
Tip: This cake tastes best only the next day, then he is properly pulled through!
