Lately I am preparing numerous desserts with chocolate. Last week I showed you the keys to making a tender sponge cake with topping of chocolate and this one, I encourage you to prepare a cake with two chocolates. Too much chocolate? I do not think so.
El cake two chocolates That I present to you today, it is still a moist chocolate sponge cake with a chocolate frosting. The lower part resembles that of a brownie, while the upper part, you can compare it to a mousse, due to its creaminess. An ideal party recipe since it can or should be made from one day to the next.

Ingredients
For the sponge cake
- 195 g. flour
- 480 g. of sugar

- 1½ teaspoons yeast (Royal)
- 1½ teaspoons of baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 2 eggs

- 177 ml. liquid cream (35% mg)
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 220 g. sugar gals
Preparation
- We preheat the oven to 180ºC.
- We line a mold (33 x 23 x 5 cm.) With greaseproof paper and reserve.
- In a large bowl, we mix the flour, sugar, cocoa, yeast, bicarbonate and salt.
- We add the eggs, the milk and the vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and beat. At the beginning we will do it at a very low speed so that the flour does not fly away.
- Once we have a "homogeneous" mixture, we incorporate the coffee hot and beat everything at low speed until integrated ..
- We pour the mixture into the mold and we bake 40 minutes approximately or until a toothpick pokes it clean.
- We let it cool the cake completely.
- Once cold, we prepare the glaze, melting the butter and chocolate in a bain-marie. We let the mixture temper.
- Meanwhile, we whip the cream with the vanilla essence and sugar until the mixture is creamy.
- We add to the cream little by little the chocolate, beating until a fluffy frosting is achieved.
- We extend the frosting on the cake and put it in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
- We cut into squares and we serve.
