Method:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan 160°C/gas 4.
- Grease and line two 6 inch round cake tins.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the eggs, oil, coffee, double cream and mix with an electric whisk, until everything is blended.
- Add the flour, cacao and sugar and mix until well combined.
- Divide the mixture between the two tins and bake in the oven for about 30-35 minutes.
- Turn onto a cooling rack and leave to cool completely.
- In the meantime prepare the chocolate and the vanilla buttercreams. With an electric mixer, whisk the butter for 5 mins then add half of the icing sugar and beat for a few mins. Add the remaining sugar and beat for another 2-3 mins. Add the double cream and vanilla and beat until well combined. Add some blue food colouring and mix well. Set aside.
- Repeat the same process for the chocolate buttercream.
- Once the sponges are completely cooled down, assemble and decorate the cake to your liking.
- Enjoy!
