Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 170°C 15 minutes before you begin.
-
In a mixing bowl or blender, whip the eggs, sugar, and vanilla on high speed for at least 5 minutes, until the mixture is light, fluffy, and has doubled in volume.
-
Add the milk and oil, then mix on low speed for just 30 seconds.
-
Using a sieve, sift the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder over the wet ingredients.
-
Mix one last time on low speed, just until the dry ingredients are fully incorporated. Do not overmix.
-
Pour the batter into a pan greased with butter and floured. Bake the cake for 30 to 35 minutes.
-
When the cake is out of the oven, let it rest for 10 minutes, then drench it with the cold milk.
-
In a pot, mix the cocoa powder, cornstarch, flour, sugar, and milk on a cold stovetop.
-
Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring continuously until it thickens.
-
Turn off the heat and add the chocolate and vanilla. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted.
-
Pour the hot cream directly over the cake.
-
Let the cake cool completely at room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator for at least two hours.
-
Just before serving, sprinkle the crushed biscuits over the top. Serve the cake chilled.
