Ingredients

• 90 g of semi-salted butter
• 3 eggs
• 150 g of cane sugar or white sugar
• 100 g of whole liquid cream
• 150g flour
• 6 g baking powder
• 12g cocoa powder
• 80 g of chocolate spread
• 1 vanilla pod

1. Preheat and prepare: Preheat your oven to 155°C with fan-forced heat. Melt the butter and let it cool slightly.
