Total Time:50 minutes
Yield:8 servings 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup of butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1 pinch of salt
1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream
8 ounces of cream cheese, softened
1 cup of powdered sugar
Fresh strawberries or raspberries for garnish
Chocolate chips or shavings for decoration
Instructions
Choose the type of dessert you want to create, whether it's a heart-shaped chocolate cake, berry parfait, or no-bake cheesecake. Ensure your baking tools are ready and preheat your oven if required.
Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl, including flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients—melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually combine the two, ensuring there are no lumps.
If you're baking a cake or brownies, pour the batter into a greased pan and place it in the preheated oven. For no-bake creations, layer your ingredients in a parfait glass or dessert dish. Refrigerate to solidify.
While the base is cooling or setting, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks and fold it into the cream cheese mixture until smooth for cheesecakes. Use this creamy topping as a delightful contrast to the base.
Once everything has cooled or set, begin the assembly process. Layer your components strategically for presentation and flavor balance, such as alternating between cake, cream, and berries.
Top your dessert with chocolate shavings or fresh fruit for a beautiful finish. Consider drizzling with a chocolate or raspberry sauce for added elegance.
