Simply Stunning Chocolate Fridge Cake Recipes

SIMPLY STUNNING CHOCOLATE FRIDGE CAKE

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate and 150ml of the cream together in a small pan. Cool until spreadable, then use to sandwich pairs of the cookies together.
• Choose a cake stand or flat plate to assemble your cake. Tip the remaining cream, the mascarpone, Baileys and icing sugar into a big bowl, and use an electric hand whisk to beat until thick and the mixture is just holding its shape.
• Arrange some of your cookie sandwiches to make a base that almost covers the plate. Dot a little of the cream under each, and stick into position. Spread or dollop over a good layer of cream, then add another layer of cookies, a little smaller than the first. To get a neat finish, choose a front to your cake - and always start by arranging the outside ring of cookies from there (then you can snap cookies in half to fill in the middle). Repeat, making the layers smaller each time, until you finish with a single cookie and a dollop of cream on top! Chill in the fridge overnight.

3-MINUTE MOLTEN DOUBLE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

Steps:

• Stir together the oil and sugar in a 12- or 14- ounce ceramic, microwave- safe mug, using a fork. Stir in the egg yolk and vanilla, and then the sour cream. Stir in the baking powder and salt, and then the flour and cocoa powder.
• Stir in the chocolate chips and microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave (in my microwave, 1 ½ minutes is just about golden). The cake is done when it rises above the edge of the mug (or close to it) and its top looks glossy and set, but not wet.
• Let cool briefly- it will collapse-sorry, but true. The center will be more molten-like than cake-like, very soft, and very hot-be careful! Enjoy ASAP with vanilla ice cream.
