Chocoholics, Reunited

I had another chocolate day today, baking specialised chocolate cakes! First up was the Rich Chocolate Truffle Cake. It is a normal sponge cake filled with mixed nuts and rich chocolate paste, topped with sticky gooey chocolate! A heavenly treat for me!

The cake has to be kept in the freezer for about six hours before it can harden and be ready to served. At the time I took the photo, the cake was only frozen for two hours, which explains why it was still messy and wet. But the chocolate is really delicious indeed! :-)

The next cake we made was the Chocolate Cheesecake. We had to make a sponge cake from scratch, fill it with cream cheese batter, then cover it with the remaining cream cheese batter. Splatter almond bits at the side, whipped cream on top, chocolate decorations and mixed nuts, and it is ready to serve.

I am going to try to create this for my best friend's housewarming this week. Hopefully she and her husband will like it!
