Ingredients

For the cake
225 g

(8oz) butter, chopped
225 g

(8oz) plain chocolate, roughly chopped
450 g

(1lb) caster sugar
175 ml

(6fl oz) milk
4

medium eggs, lightly beaten
150 ml

(5fl oz) sour cream
250 g

(9oz) plain flour
1 1/2 tsp.

baking powder
40 g

(1½oz) cocoa powder
For the icing
200 g

(7oz) plain chocolate, roughly chopped
50 ml

(2fl oz) double cream
40 g

(1½oz) golden syrup
200 g

(7oz) unsalted butter, very soft
250 g

(9oz) icing sugar, sifted
12

chocolate truffles, optional, to decorate

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 160°C (140°C fan) mark 3. Grease a deep, round 20.5 cm (8in) cake tin, then line with baking parchment. To make the cake, put the butter, chocolate, sugar and milk into a large pan and gently melt, stirring occasionally, until smooth and glossy. Set aside to cool slightly - about 5min.
2. Whisk the eggs and sour cream into the chocolate mixture, then sift over the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder and whisk together. Scrape mixture into the prepared tin and bake in the centre of the oven for 1hr 45min or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Cool completely in the tin.
3. To make icing, put chocolate, cream and golden syrup into a medium pan; heat gently until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool.
4. Using an electric hand whisk, beat the softened butter and sifted icing sugar in a large bowl until combined. Add the cooled chocolate mixture and beat to combine.
5. Cut the cooled cake in half horizontally. Use some of the icing to sandwich the halves together, then spread the remaining icing over the top and sides of the cake. Transfer to a cake stand or plate and top with a crown of truffles, if you like.

To store: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
