- 1 3/4 cups of butter that is unsalted
- 1 cup (114 grams) of raw cocoa powder that is not sweetened
- powdered sugar (six cups, or 690 grams)
- 3/4 ounces of heavy cream for whipping
- One pinch of salt
- Two quarter cups (380 grams) of chocolate chips
The Method of Preparation
Make sure the cheesecake layer is ready:
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (148 degrees Celsius). Wrap aluminum foil over the inside of a cake pan measuring 9 inches (23 centimeters) in diameter and push it into the pan to make it level.
Combine In order to avoid air bubbles from forming in the cheesecake batter, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and cocoa powder together in a large mixer bowl until they are well blended to a smooth consistency. Add the vanilla essence and sour cream, and mix on low until everything is incorporated. Add chocolate that has been melted and slightly cooled in increments while mixing until it is completely mixed. While mixing the mixture carefully and scraping down the sides after each addition, proceed to add the eggs one at a time.
The cheesecake should be baked by placing the cake pan inside of a bigger pan and filling the outer pan with heated water until it reaches approximately half way up the sides of the smaller pan. About half an hour should be spent baking the cheesecake. The middle should be level, but it should still be jiggly. Stop using the oven and make sure the door is closed for a period of thirty minutes. If you want to cool down gradually, leave the door open for another half an hour. Take the cheesecake out of the oven and the water bath, and place it in the refrigerator until it is solid, which should take approximately four hours or overnight.
Secondly, prepare the layers of the chocolate cake:
To make the cake batter, combine the following ingredients in a large bowl: flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until combined. Milk, vegetable oil, vanilla essence, and an egg should be mixed together in a separate bowl separately. Mix the dry ingredients with the wet ones in a slow and steady manner until they are almost completely incorporated. Bring the hot water to a smooth consistency.
Bake the cake by dividing the batter evenly between two round cake pans about 9 inches in diameter and lining them with flour. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius), or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Ten minutes should be spent cooling the pancakes in the pans before moving them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
The third step is to make the chocolate buttercream:
To make buttercream, beat the unsalted butter in a large bowl until it reaches a creamy consistency. The cocoa powder and powdered sugar should be added in stages, with each addition being thoroughly combined. Combine the heavy cream with a pinch of salt and whisk until the mixture is frothy and light. Mix in the chocolate chunks until they are completely incorporated.
- Put the Crust on the Cake:
Cake in Layers: Transfer one layer of chocolate cake to a cake board or serving dish and set it aside. Cover the cake with a layer of chocolate buttercream and spread it evenly. Using extreme caution, position the layer of cold cheesecake on top of the layer of frosted cake layers.
Applying chocolate buttercream over the top and sides of the cake is the first step in frosting the cake. If you so want, garnish with more chocolate chips or shavings that you have melted.
Serve and take pleasure in:
Serve: Cut the cake into slices and serve it. Every bite is a delicious opportunity to indulge in the decadent blend of chocolate cake and creamy cheesecake.
Advice and Concluding Remarks Advice:
In order to prevent lumps from forming in the batter of the cheesecake, make sure that the cream cheese is at room temperature. Make sure that the melted chocolate has been allowed to gently cool down before adding it to the mixture. This will result in a smoother texture.
A Texture of Cake: A moist and soft crumb is created as a result of the hot water that is used in the cake batter. Make sure that the batter is not overmixed in order to maintain the cake’s airiness and lightness.
