Steps:
- Line three 9-inch cake pans with foil, leaving about a 2-inch overhang on all sides. (See Cook's Note.)
- Add the cookies and sugar to the bowl of a food processor and pulse to fine crumbs. Drizzle in the butter and pulse until the crumbs are completely coated and moistened with the butter. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom of one of the prepared pans; set aside.
- Add the dark chocolate pudding mix to a large bowl and whisk in 2 cups of the heavy cream. Continue whisking until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. (It's fine if there are still a few granules in the mix; they will dissolve once set.) Pour the pudding mixture on top of the crumb crust and spread until even. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, clean out the bowl, add the chocolate pudding mix and whisk in 2 cups heavy cream. Continue whisking until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Pour into another prepared pan and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
- Clean out the bowl again, then add the white chocolate pudding mix and whisk in the remaining 2 cups heavy cream. Continue whisking until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Pour into the third prepared pan and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
- When all 3 layers are completely frozen, use the foil to lift out the cakes from the pans. Place the dark chocolate layer crumb-side down on a cake stand or large plate. Top with the chocolate layer and then with the white chocolate layer. Refrigerate until the layers are thawed and the cake is set, about 8 hours and up to overnight.
- Before serving, run a hot knife around the outside of the cake to smooth it and sprinkle the top with the chocolate shavings.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Oil and line the base of three 19cm sandwich tins. Mix the flour, cocoa, bicarb and sugar in a bowl. Make a well in the centre and beat in the syrup, eggs, oil and milk with an electric whisk until smooth.
- Divide the mix between the tins, and bake for 25-30 mins until the cakes are risen and firm to the touch. Cool in the tins for 10 mins before turning out onto a cooling rack and cooling completely. At this stage, they can be frozen, well wrapped, for up to eight weeks.
- Make the bark while the cake is cooling. Melt the chocolate in short bursts in the microwave, stirring every 20 secs, until smooth. Spoon onto a parchment-lined baking tray and smooth over with a spatula to make a thinnish layer, around 35 x 20cm. Sprinkle over the chocolate chips along with the pieces of pretzel and honeycomb, then chill until solid. Remove the bark from the fridge and leave for a minute to come to room temperature before using a sharp knife to cut it into shards (if it's fridge cold, the chocolate will snap rather than cut). Chill again until you're ready to decorate the cake.
- To make the icing, melt the chocolate in the microwave, stirring between short blasts, then leave to cool a little. Meanwhile, beat the butter, icing sugar and 1 tbsp boiling water with an electric whisk or stand mixer, slowly at first, then turn up the speed and beat until you get a pale, fluffy icing. Spoon out a third of the mix into a separate bowl and stir in the peanut butter. Whisk the melted chocolate into the remainder of the icing, then beat in the cocoa if you want a darker, more chocolatey-coloured icing.
- Sandwich the three cakes together with the peanut butter icing. Use half the chocolate icing to coat the sides and top of the cake and fill in the edges between the layers, scraping off any excess. Chill for 20 mins. This is called a crumb coating, allowing you to get a really smooth finish when it comes to the final icing.
- Spread the remaining chocolate icing over the lightly chilled cake, smoothing over the sides and top so you get a neat finish. Chill again for 20 mins.
- To make the ganache, heat the cream in a small pan until steaming. Tip the dark chocolate into a bowl, then pour over the cream. Mix well until smooth and shiny. Transfer to a piping bag and leave to cool for a few mins at room temperature.
- Pipe the ganache on top of the cake, nudging it over the edge and allowing it to drip down neatly. Do this all the way round the cake, then fill in the centre with more ganache. Smooth the top with a knife. Chill for 1 hr for the ganache to set.
- Press the bark shards into the cake, sticking up. Add lots of chocolate eggs, popcorn and pretzels in and around the shards. Cut into slices to serve. Will keep for up to three days kept in a cool place in an airtight container.

V'S CHOCOLATE COMA CAKE (TRIPLE LAYER)
I wanted to make my DH a special chocolate cake for his birthday this year and a box cake mix wasn't gonna due. Although I often kick-up cake mixes I decided to create a cake just for him and go the extra mile. WARNING: This cake is not for dieters, It is packed with lots of love and will be my special occasion cake from now on. My boys loved it so much, they are already requesting it for their birthdays! :) Another thumbs up by the family!

Steps:
- Mix 1 T. cocoa with 3 T sugar in small bowl. Line bottoms of three 8-inch layer pans with wax paper, spray with non-cooking spray and dust sides of pan with cocoa/sugar mixture.
- In a saucepan over medium low heat, combine 3/4 cup cocoa, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 egg yolk, and 1/2 cup milk. Cook, stirring constantly to prevent sticking, until thickened. Cool.
- Cream butter until light and fluffy; add remaining 1 cup of sugar, beating until well blended. Add 1 egg and 2 egg yolks; mix well. Stir in sifted dry ingredients alternately with sour cream and mayonaise. Add vanilla and cooled cocoa mixture. Beat remaining (3) egg whites until stiff; fold into cake batter. Pour batter evenly into the three pans.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a cake tester or wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pans for about 20 minutes. Invert onto wire racks, carefully peel off the paper liners, and let cool completelybefore frosting. I found them a lot easier to work with after firming them up in the freezer for 30 minutes. They'll defrost quickly once assembled. You'll be glad you did this, trust me.).
- Chocolate Frosting:.
- Melt chocolate with butter in Microwavable bowl for 1 minute, stir to combine; stir in sour Cream, vanilla and salt. I pour this mixture into my stand mixer then slowly beat in powdered sugar Until desired spreading consistency.
- Cake Assembly:.
- To frost the cake, place one layer, flat side up, on a cake stand or large serving plate. Spread 2/3 cup frosting evenly over the top. Repeat with the next layer. Place the last layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.
- TIPS:.
- Making a crumb coat of frosting-a thin layer that binds the dark crumbs to the cake so they don't show up in the final outer frosting layer-is a great idea for this cake, or any with a dark cake and lighter-colored frosting. Once you "mask" your cake, let it chill for 15 to 30 minutes until firm, then use the remainder of the frosting to create a smooth final coating. Once the cake is fully frosted, it helps to chill it again about 30 minutes to let it firm up.
TRIPLE LAYER CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE
Want an extra special dessert for someone special? This is it! It sounds complicated, but the steps can be broken down and prepared over 2 - 3 days, which makes it pretty easy. I got the recipe from one of my cooking magazines, I don't remember which one, but this is my all time favorite chocolate cake. I'm not sure about the prep. time, as I always spread it out over 2 or 3 days.

Steps:
- Make the chocolate mousse: Put the chocolate in a food processor fitted with the metal chopping blade.
- Process for 20 to 30 seconds, until finely ground.
- In a small saucepan, combine the milk, sugar and salt.

- Process for 10 to 20 seconds, until the chocolate is completely melted.
- Using a spatula, scrape down the side of the work bowl.
- Add the oil and vanilla extract; process for 5 to 10 seconds, until the mixture is creamy.
- Scrape the chocolate mixture into a large bowl and cool for about 5 minutes, until tepid.
- In a chilled 4-1/2 quart bowl of a heavy-duty electric mixer fitted with the wire whisk attachment, whip the cream until soft mounds barely start to form and the cream is still pourable.
- Do not overwhip the cream.
- Using a large rubber spatula, gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the tepid chocolate mixture to lighten it.
- Fold in the remaining whipped cream.
- Do not overfold the mousse or the texture will be grainy.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 6 to 8 hours or overnight, until firm.
- Make the cake: Grease three 10-inch round cake pans.

- Mix until blended then add the remaining dry ingredients.
- Mix on medium speed just until blended and the flour lumps disappear.
- Divide evenly among the three prepared pans and smooth the tops with an offset metal spatula.
- Bake for 28 to 32 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove the pans from the oven and place on wire cooling racks.
- Cool for 15 minutes and invert.
- Peel off the waxed paper and cool completely.
- Begin to assemble the cake: Place a dab of chocolate mousse and then a layer of the cooled cake on a 10-inch cardboard cake circle or the circular insert of a tart pan.
- Using a large rubber spatula, place about one-quarter of the chilled chocolate mousse on top of the first cake layer.
- Using a metal cake spatula, spread the mousse evenly not quite to the sides of the cake.
- There should be slightly less than one-half inch of mousse on top of the cake.
- Place the second cake layer on top and repeat the mousse layer.
- Place the third cake layer on top, then spread the remaining chocolate mousse over the top and sides of the cake, coating smoothly and evenly.
- Place the cake in the freezer for a minimum of four hours.
- Make the ganache glaze: Place the coarsely chopped chocolate in a food processor fitted with the metal chopping blade.
- Process for 20 to 30 seconds, until finely ground.

- Process for 20 to 30 seconds, until finely ground.
- Remove the cake from the freezer and place on a wire rack that has been set over aluminum foil or a sheet pan.
- Slowly pour the ganache over the top of the cake, smoothing with a large metal cake spatula.
- When the top has been coated, slowly pour the ganache around the sides of the cake so it drips down and coats the sides.
- Use the spatula to spread the ganache evenly over the sides of the cake.
- When completely coated with the ganache, scoop the Oreo crumbs with your hand and press them onto the sides of the cake, coating its entirety.
