A chocolate cake with blueberries and a marzipan layer is a real taste orgy! Here’s a recipe on how to make this heavenly dessert:

Ingredients:

Chocolate cake:

200 g dark chocolate

150 g butter

200 g sugar

4 eggs

30 ml MaxAroma Almond Aroma

10 ml MaxAroma Vanilla Flavour

170 g flour

30 g cocoa powder

1 teaspoon of baking powder

Pinch of salt

1 tablespoon cocoa powder for decoration

Blueberry layer:

200 g fresh or frozen blueberries

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

or 200gr blueberry jam

Marzipan layer:

200 g marzipan

icing sugar for kneading

Preparation:

First prepare the chocolate cake. Preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare a 20-22 cm cake tin lined with baking paper. Melt the chocolate over steam or in the microwave and leave to cool until lukewarm.

Cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Add the eggs, MaxAroma Almond Flavouring and MaxAroma Vanilla Flavouring one at a time. In another bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and then the melted chocolate. Mix thoroughly until you have a smooth dough.

Pour the batter into the cake tin and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top of the cake is set, if the batter sticks to a toothpick inserted into the centre of the cake, the batter is still slightly moist, bake for a few minutes more.

While the cake is baking, prepare the blueberry layer. In a saucepan, cook the blueberries with the sugar and lemon juice until the fruit collapses and thickens slightly, then leave to cool.

Once the cake is done and cooled, cut it in half horizontally to make two sheets. Spread a layer of blueberry filling on the cut halves of each sheet.

Prepare the marzipan layer. Roll out the marzipan into a thin layer, almost the size of the cake. Place the marzipan on top of the blueberry layer, then place the top layer of the cake on top so that the blueberry layer meets the marzipan layer.

Decorate the cake with blueberries and cocoa powder and you have a heavenly chocolate cake with blueberries and marzipan!

Here is a fantastic recipe for a really special and delicious cake! Enjoy your meal!
