Cooking Steps
Chocolate Cake
Step 1 :
Heat milk in a saucepan. Add the butter and heat the milk until the butter dissolves and the milk just begins to boil.
Step 2 :
In a separate bowl, sift together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3 :
In another bowl, combine sugar with yogurt and vanilla essence (the wet ingredients) then whisk until homogenous.
Step 4 :
Gradually add the dry ingredients and the hot milk mixture to the wet mixture, alternating between the two. Stir continuously with a hand mixer or whisk until you achieve a smooth batter-like consistency.
Step 5 :
Pour the batter into a buttered and floured round baking pan. Tap the pan 2-3 times to release any air bubbles.
Step 6 :
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Whipped Cream
Step 1 :
To prepare the chocolate ganache, place the chopped dark compound chocolate and whipping cream in a bowl. Melt in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until the chocolate has melted and combines with the cream. Set aside to cool completely.
Step 2 :
In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream until soft peaks form.
Step 3 :
Add the cooled chocolate ganache to the whipped cream. If the ganache isn’t cool yet, allow it to cool completely before adding.
Step 4 :
Whip the mixture until stiff peaks form. Your delicious chocolate mousse is now ready!
The 3 Milk Sauce
Step 1 :
Heat full-fat milk in a deep-bottomed pan. While whisking continuously, add the heavy cream and condensed milk.
Step 2 :
That’s it! Your 3-milk sauce is ready to be poured over the cake.
Assembling Chocolate Tres Leches Cake
Step 1 :
Poke the cooled chocolate cake with a skewer or fork. Pour the prepared 3-milk sauce over the entire cake.
Step 2 :
Refrigerate the cake for 3-4 hours, allowing it to absorb the delicious sauce.
Step 3 :
Slice the cake in half. Spread the chocolate whipped cream on one slice, then top with the other slice to create a sandwich with chocolate whipped cream in the middle.
Step 4 :
Pour the remaining 3-milk sauce over the cake.
Step 5 :
Refrigerate the cake for an additional 30 minutes, so it sets completely. Your cake is now ready to serve!
Step 6 :
Decorate the cake with nuts and berries, slice into pieces, and serve.
