Ingredients
- 125 g butter softened
- 1 cup brown sugar firmly packed
- 1/2 cup caster sugar
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups plain flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup water
- Easter eggs or any candies you like, to decorate
Chocolate Icing
- 100 g dark chocolate chopped coarsely
- 60 g butter chopped coarsely
- 1/2 cup icing sugar
- 1/4 cup sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C conventional (160°C fan-forced). Spray the bottom of a square cake tin with olive oil spray, then line with baking paper so it comes up the sides a little.
- Throw all the ingredients except the Easter eggs into a large mixing bowl. Combine. Beat with an electric mixer for about 3–4 minutes until well mixed. Pour into the cake tin.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes. Remove and let cool.
- While the cake is cooking, make the icing. Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and gently warm over low heat until combined. Place in the fridge for 10 minutes so it thickens up slightly. Spread over the cake.
- Decorate with any Easter eggs or candies you like!
