Description

This chocolate cake with creamy curd filling is a real eye-catcher on any coffee table! I particularly like to bake it at Christmas time or for a birthday, because it simply looks festive and tastes incredibly delicious. The combination of the juicy chocolate dough and the slightly sour curd filling is simply unbeatable. The preparation is a little more complex, but the result is worth it. If you like it even more chocolatey, you can also add chocolate chips to the dough. An absolute must for all chocolate lovers!
