Chocolate cake in boiling water

✅Ingredients for the dough:
Eggs – 2 pcs;
Sugar -1.5 cups;
Baking powder – 1 pack (I had 10 grams in a pack);
Soda – 1.5 tsp (quicklime);
Cocoa – 4-6 tbsp (to taste);
Flour – 3 cups;
Milk – 1 glass;
Boiling water – 1 glass;
Vegetable oil – 1/2 cup (but I added a little less, but the recipe said the more cocoa, the more oil);

✅For the cream you will need:
150 g melted butter (I used 82.5%)
1 can of boiled condensed milk (after boiling, cook over medium heat for 1-1.5 hours)
2 packs of cream cheese (PHILADELPHIA type) or 350-400 g
1 tbsp. l. with a slide of cocoa

✅Preparation:

  1. Beat eggs with sugar. Mix dry ingredients. Add the dry mixture a little at a time to the egg-sugar mixture. Then milk, melt the butter, and at the very end a glass of boiling water. Mix everything, beat lightly with a mixer. Pour the dough into a greased mold, put it in the oven, bake at 180 degrees until ready. Check the time on your oven.
  2. I baked for 35-40 minutes. The cake rises a lot.
  3. Cool and cut into 3 parts.⠀
  4. Next, prepare the cream. There is no special technology for whipping cream. All ingredients must be mixed until smooth. Do not overdo it. Spend a maximum of 5 minutes. The cream can be used for other cakes. A very tasty combination of ingredients and, by the way, well suited for custard (eclairs, profiteroles and cupcakes). You don’t need to add cocoa for one layer.
  5. Grease with cream and assemble the cake.
