Instructions

Chocolate fudge cake

  1. Melt the butter and the chocolate together in the microwave.
  2. Into the same bowl add the vegetable oil, caster sugar, sour cream, soft light brown sugar and vanilla extract. Mix together until all the ingredients are combined.
  3. Add the eggs, mix until combined.
  4. Pour 1/3 of the boiling water over the cake batter, stir using a spatula until just combined. Repeat until all the boiling water has been mixed into the batter. (do not over mix)
  5. In a separate bowl add the flour, cocoa, salt,  baking powder and bicarbonate of soda. Sift into the wet ingredients.
  6. Pour the cake batter into three  lined 6" cake tins.  Only line the bottom of each cake tin, not the sides. This method stops the cake from shrinking at the side once it has been removed from the oven.
  7. Bake for 40-45 mins at 160c. The cakes should still be fudgy inside when you remove them from the oven.
  8. Let the cakes cool for 15 minutes, then gently use a sharp and thin knife to separate the cakes from the cake tins. Place a plate on top and turn upside down to remove the cakes. Let the cakes continue to cool on a baking rack.

Chocolate ganache

  1. Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and put into a bowl.
  2. Heat the cream on its own in the microwave for 1 minute. Once hot and bubbling, pour over the chocolate.
  3. Let it sit for 1min, then stir to combine.
  4. Stir in the golden syrup (or syrup of choice)
  5. Let the ganache cool until it becomes a thicker consistency. You can place the chocolate ganache in the fridge to speed up the process but do not let it set hard.

Nutella & hazelnut filling

  1. Chop all the hazelnuts into very small pieces.
  2. Add half the chopped hazelnut and the Nutella in a bowl, mix together. Cover with cling film/plate set aside.

Hazelnut drip

  1. Make the hazelnut drip when the cake is covered in chocolate ganache and is chilling in the fridge.
  2. Heat the cream on its own in the microwave for 1 minute. Once hot and bubbling, pour over the chocolate chips.
  3. Let it sit for 1min, then stir to combine.
  4. Place back in the microwave for 20 seconds.
  5. Stir in the chopped hazelnuts, then set aside to cool. (Do not let it cool completely as you need it to still be able to run down the cake)

Assemble

  1. Once the cakes have cooled, cut the tops of each cake to make them flat.
  2. Add some of the chocolate ganache in a piping bag, pipe a ring around the 1st cake layer.
  3. Add half the Nutella and hazelnut filling.
  4. Repeat with the 2nd cake layer.
  5. Turn the 3rd cake upside down and place on top.
  6. If the chocolate ganache is too firm to spread in the outside of the cake, heat it 5 seconds at a time in the microwave. Be very careful not to heat too much.
  7. Spread the chocolate ganache all over the top and down the sides of the cake.
  8. Add more chocolate ganache to the sides of the cakes, use a spatula to make sure the entire cake is covered.
  9. Make a messy pattern using the spatula.
  10. Place in the fridge for 30-40 minutes.
  11. Pour the hazelnut drip on top of the cake, use a spoon to push it over the sides.
