Ingredients
- 2 Air Fryer Chocolate Cake Sponges
- 540 g dark chocolate chunks
- 420 ml Double Cream/Heavy Cream
Kitchen Gadgets
- Cosori Air Fryer
- hand whisk
- Silicone Cake Pans
Instructions
- Add to your silicone pan the chocolate and half the cream. Air fry for 4 minutes at 120c/250f.
- Stir and add half the remaining cream and air fry for another 3 minutes at the same temperature.
- When the air fryer beeps stir again and add the remaining cream as you stir. You now have perfect chocolate ganache.
- Then transfer the silicone pan onto a plate and fridge for 30-60 minutes until cool.
- Once cool whisk with a hand whisk and you have whipped ganache.
- Then either spoon by hand, or use a piping bag like we did, sandwich the two sponges together with a layer of buttercream in the middle and then pipe around the edges to create the perfect chocolate cake look.
- Then add a layer of the whipped ganache on top and add a good layer as you are creating your mountain for what chocolate you add.
- Finally decorate with leftovers and drizzle with a favourite sauce and you’re ready to add a candle and sing happy birthday!

Notes
- Chocolate. For the chocolate we recommend that you add broken up Bournville because it tastes so good and melts well.
