Chocolate sponge cake with chocolate

6 servings

50 minutes

Chocolate biscuit with chocolate is a true delight for lovers of rich cocoa flavor and airy texture. This dessert originates from Italian cuisine, where chocolate treats are valued for their depth of flavor and velvety structure. The biscuit turns out tender and porous due to the combination of whipped eggs, milk, and baking powder, while pieces of chocolate inside provide pleasant surprises with every bite. The top layer soaked in aromatic chocolate glaze makes this dessert particularly appealing. It is served as a standalone treat with coffee or tea and also used as a base for complex cakes with creamy layers. The taste of the biscuit is a harmony of sweetness and a light bitterness of cocoa, making it a versatile dessert suitable for cozy home evenings as well as festive events.
