2 teaspoons baking powder
2 pinches salt
1 cup (200 g) sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla essence
½ cup (1.2 dl) milk or water
½ cup (1.2 dl) vegetable oil (flavorless)
2 eggs
Ingredients for frosting
2/3 cup (1.6 dl) heavy cream or whipping cream9 oz (260 g) semisweet chocolate (40-50% cocoa)
Method

- Add milk/water, vegetable oil and eggs.
- Mix everything together until smooth, either by hand or by using an electric mixer at slow speed.
- Transfer to bake tin and bake at 350 degrees until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, approximately 35 to 45 minutes.
- After the cake has cooled, slice the cake through the middle to make two layers (easier if the cake has been in the fridge).
Frosting
- Heat 2/3 cup (1.6 dl) of heavy cream or whipping cream in a sauce pan.
- Remove from heat, add 9 oz (260 g) of finely chopped dark semisweet chocolate, stir until smooth, and let it cool until in thickens, if needed in the fridge.
- Use one 1/3 of the frosting between the two layers, 1/3 on top, and the rest around the cake. Put the cake into the fridge for one hour or more to harden the frosting.
- This cake should have room temperature when served.
