In a large bowl add sugar, plain flour, cocoa powder, pinch of salt and then baking powder and baking soda and you want to mix everything together until it's incorporated. Then add oil and vanilla extract. Lastly you want to add milk, then add eggs and you want to mix everything together until you get nice and smooth mixture. So just keep whisking just like that and it should look just like that then add hot water and mix everything together the mixture will be very liquid like it's shown in the video so don't worry it should be like this prepare baking tin lined with parchment paper and I've buttered it so you want to pour your cake mixture inside and then it's ready to go so bake it in the oven for about 25 to 35 minutes until the top is cooked at 180 degrees Celsius or 350 F. When you take a toothpick and check, the cake should be nice and clean. In a separate bowl add water to your gelatin and mix it through and set it aside to bloom. Then in a large bowl add your white and dark chocolate, then add butter and melt everything on the stove or in a microwave in 30 second breaks. Make sure you don't burn the chocolate. Mix everything together until you have a nice smooth mixture, just like this. take a large bowl and add cold double cream and start whisking it until you start to form soft peak. Add vanilla extract and icing sugar and add icing sugar a little bit at a time and when the mixture becomes quite soft peak that's where you want to stop just like this. Once the gelatin has bloomed you want to microwave that so it becomes liquid and then we're going to add this into our cream mixture. Mix everything together really well. Then we're going to add our cream into our warm chocolate mixture a little bit at a time. Then switch to your whisk attachment and just keep mixing the cream inside. You need to work pretty quickly as it sets quite fast. Once it's done, set it aside. Guys and girls, I have my recipe on my website at aliceyummyfood.com. You'll find full ingredients and also directions on how to make this. And also you'll be able to find loads of other recipes that I do for my channel and just click through click on the picture and you'll be able to see the whole video with the directions and the full recipe in English and Russian languages. Prepare your cake pan with some parchment paper and cling film at the bottom so I'm using this one like that and then I'm also adding an acetone tape just to make sure it's nice and smooth when we peel it off. So when the brownie is done you want to place it upside down so the bottom up and then you want to start adding your chocolate mousse all over the brownie and then sort of press inside into those little sides and the holes spread it evenly and now it's time to cut our strawberries again you can do this way in advance chop your strawberries up into sort of thin pieces I'm cutting them into three and you want to start layering them around the cake then also take whole strawberries and place them on top of the cake make sure the whole cake is covered in strawberries it's gonna taste so good guys very fresh and very very strawberry and chocolate next I've placed the rest of my mousse into a piping bag to make sure it's easier to get into these little holes so just start with little holes around the cake and make sure there are no gaps in between the strawberries and once it's done you want to cover the whole cake and then smooth it out with your spatula. Place your cake into the fridge for two hours to set. You can decorate cake further with a chocolate glaze but it's up to you. I will leave the recipe in my description. And then place it back into the fridge to set. Once the cake is done you want to gently take it out and then peel off your acetate tape and then feel free to decorate the cake as you like. I'm adding some whipped cream, some chocolate macarons i'm also adding some waffles around and extra strawberries i really like to give a really good presentation and make sure that the cake is fantastic and it's a bit over the top so there you go guys it's done it's got meringue it's got cream it's got chocolate it's got macarons it's literally got everything now if we slice into it and have a look the insides are very very impressive you've got that chocolate brownie at the bottom creamy chocolate mousse fresh strawberries in each bite and that chocolate ganache on top with cream and extra strawberries enjoy
