Warning! Sweetness overload! Serve in brownie size portions – so naughty but so very nice.

Ingredients:

Chocolate sauce:
2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 cup hot water
2 tsp vanilla essence 
1 tsp cinnamon

Vanilla cake:
2 cups cake flour
1 & 1/2 cups sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 cup milk powder
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup oil
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla essence

Topping:
160g milk chocolate
80g dark chocolate
100g walnuts

Method

Pack 15 briquettes onto the coal grid inside your PotjieKing. Put a couple of firelighters into the bottom section and get that going.

• In a bowl, add the dry ingredients together for the vanilla cake
• Make a well in the middle and mix in the wet ingredients.
• Mix until smooth
• In a separate bowl mix the dry ingredients for the chocolate sauce and then mix in the wet ingredients.
• Line a no 12 flat bottom potie pot with heavy duty tin foil
• Grease the foil with spray and cook or butter
• Pour in the vanilla cake mix
• Slowly pour the chocolate sauce over the vanilla batter.
• Cover with the potjie lid and space 10 briquettes evenly over the lid
• Spread the remaining 5 briquettes evenly inside the PotjieKing
• Place the potjie pot onto the PotieKing
• Turn the potjie pot every 15 minutes.
• Cook for 40 – 50 minutes
• In another bowl crush up the chocolate and nuts into small bits
• Remove the potjie pot off of the PotjieKing and gently blow the ash off of the lid – leaving the coals there
• Carefully remove the lid – out of the wind so the ash doesn’t blow onto the cake
• Cover the top of the cake and chocolate sauce with the bits of chocolate and nuts
• Replace the lid and leave for another 10 minutes so that the chocolate melts

Serve a scoop of hot cake with ice cream or allow to cool and slice into squares.
