How to make chocolate cherry messy cake

Start by melting your dark chocolate in a bowl over boiling water

Add five eggs to your mixing bowl

Pour out 3/4 cup off caster sugar

Add sugar to eggs a whisk for five minutes on high speed till mixture is a third the density

Like so... Yellow and creamy

Pour a full cup off rice flour into bowl and fold into egg mixture. Can use normal flour too.

Add baking powder to help it rise

Check on your melted chocolate and turn down heat when fully melted

Mixture should still be light and fluffy even after adding the flour

Now slowly fold in the melted chocolate

Yummy - lastly fold in the glazed cherries

Separate mixture into two cake tins the same size

Like so... Don't worry the mixture will even out as it cooks. Now add to oven at 160 Celsius for about 20 minutes

Whilst the cakes are baking prepare your butter icing. Used desired amount off butter

You should then add double the amount off icing sugar and a table spoon off water

Mix on low speed

Add colouring

Mix until it's all pink or whatever colour you like :)

Add half to piping bag and leave till ready

Rest cakes to fully cool before adding butter cream

Once cooled lay out first layer

Smother in half the butter cream left in bowl

Add second cake on top off the other like so - looks like a giant Oreo

Pipe the rest off the butter cream in a similar messy design as the picture and add hundreds and thousands

Hey presto - totally srummy and definitely bad for ones waist line Chocolate Cheery Messy Cake

Enjoy :)
