Ingredients

200g self raising flour⁠⠀

1 teaspoon baking powder⁠⠀

a pinch of salt⁠⠀

400g caster sugar⁠⠀

85g cocoa powder⁠⠀

1 tsp vanilla bean paste⁠⠀

3 free range eggs⁠⠀

100ml vegetable oil⁠⠀

225g Greek yoghurt⁠⠀

225ml boiling water⁠⠀

FOR THE MOUSSE FILLING⠀

30g butter, room temperature ⁠⠀

180g cream cheese⁠⠀

115g icing sugar⁠⠀

100g milk chocolate⁠⠀

50g dark chocolate⁠⠀

225g double cream⁠⠀

TO SERVE

100g blackberries

METHOD

Preheat your oven to 180c and grease a muffin tin. I used a straight sided mini cake tin but a muffin tin will work perfectly. ⁠⠀

Add the dry ingredients to a bowl. Mix them together with a whisk. Add all the wet ingredients and use the whisk to mix them. Pour into the prepared tin and bake until skewer comes out clean. About 20 minutes.

To make the filling, mix the butter, cream cheese and icing sugar together with electric beaters. melt the dark and milk chocolate together in a microwave and then pour it over the cream cheese mixture and whisk it in. Whip the double cream until whipped but still slightly soft and then fold it through the chocolate mixture. refrigerate until ready to assemble your cakes. ⁠⠀

Slice the cakes in half. Pipe the filling in and on top. Top with a blackberry.⁠⠀
