Steps to make Elsie’s seriously chocolate cake:

- Line an 8 inch, loose bottomed, square tin with greaseproof paper and pour in your batter.
- Place the tin in a pre-heated oven at 180˚C and cook for 35-45 minutes. Check after 25 minutes and cover loosely with foil for the last 10 - 15 mintes if it looks like it is catching on the top.

- Add the nutella and a drop or two of vanilla essence. Finally, mix in the double cream and place in the fridge until the cake is cooked and cooled completely. You can adjust the balance of icing sugar and cocoa and cream depending on your tastes. We’re not too keen on icing that is really swet so we put more cocoa and cream and less icing sugar! Taste as you go to get it just right for you.
- Take the icing out of the fridge 15 minutes before you want to use it. We only used half of the icing as we only wanted it on the top of the cake as it was already very moist but, if you like icing, slice the cake in half and put some in the middle too!
- The cake is best stored in the fridge as the icing as cream in it.
