Preparation:
Let’s start by preparing the biscuit. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Beat eggs with sugar until bright foam forms. Gradually add flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly.
Pour the batter into the baking pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 30—35 minutes. Check the readiness of the biscuit by inserting a toothpick into it. If it comes out dry, the biscuit is ready. Let it cool completely.
Now let’s start preparing the cream. Melt the chocolate along with the butter in a water bath. Add fresh mint and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
In a separate container, beat the cream and sugar until stiff. Gradually add whipped cream to chocolate mixture and mix gently.
Now let’s assemble the cake. Cut the biscuit horizontally into two parts. Spread half the cream onto one half of the sponge, then cover with the other half of the sponge and spread the remaining cream evenly. Make sure the cream is thoroughly distributed throughout the cake.
Decorate the cake with fresh mint and chocolate chips. Place the cake in the refrigerator for several hours to allow the cream to harden.
