- Continue with a second layer, exactly the same as above.
- Finish with a generous layer of cocoa powder or a mixture of cocoa powder, ground nutmeg and ground cinnamon and decorate the cake with whipped cream as you like.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (best overnight – this recipe tastes better the more it sits in the fridge)
