Notes
Prep Time: This includes the preparation of the cake batter as well as the icing. Cool down times not included.
Cook Time: If the test w/ the wooden pin says the cake is not ready just add another 5 min in the oven.
Cake pan: You may also use butter instead of oil. Concerning the fine breadcrumbs: You may also use fine cacao powder or flour.
If you’ve got very small eggs take 3 of them.
The additional flavour is made by the chocolate flakes. If you like to change for another ingredient think about 50 g of it.
The cake will be fine for about 2 days at room temperature & up to 4-5 days in the fridge.
Sorry: no experience w/ freezing!
