Ingredients:
-
2 eggs
-
½ tsp salt
-
120g sugar (about ⅝ cup)
-
200g condensed milk (about ⅘ cup)
-
200ml whipping cream (about ⅘ cup)
-
50g chocolate (dark or milk, as preferred)
-
40ml warm cream (about 3 tbsp)
-
Water (as needed for mixing and steaming/baking)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Egg Mixture
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and sugar until fluffy and pale.
-
This step helps give your cake structure and sweetness.
-
-
Add Condensed Milk
-
Pour in the condensed milk and whisk until smooth.
-
This adds richness and extra sweetness to the cake.
-
-
Add Water
-
Add just enough water to loosen the mixture slightly.
-
The batter should be smooth, not too thick.
-
-
Bake or Steam the Cake
-
Pour the batter into a greased and lined cake tin.
-
Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for about 35–40 minutes,
OR steam on medium heat for about 40 minutes, until set. -
Test doneness with a toothpick—if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
-
-
Prepare the Chocolate Cream Topping
-
In a heatproof bowl, add the chopped chocolate.
-
Pour the 40ml warm cream over it and let sit for 1–2 minutes.
-
Stir until melted and smooth (this is your chocolate ganache).
-
-
Whip the Cream
-
In a chilled bowl, whip the 200ml whipping cream until soft peaks form.
-
Gently fold in the chocolate ganache until evenly combined.
-
-
Assemble
-
Once the cake has cooled completely, spread the chocolate cream mixture evenly over the top.
-
You can also pipe it for decoration.
-
-
Chill & Serve
-
Place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the cream set.
-
Slice and enjoy a soft, creamy, chocolatey delight! ✨

✅ Tip: For extra indulgence, sprinkle chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or crushed nuts on top.
