  • 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

COME PROCEDERE
  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C.

  5. Add the eggs and the vanilla extract mixing well until they are full incorporated.
  6. Break the dark chocolate into pieces and melt it in the microwave oven at full power three times for 30 seconds. Stir well and allow it to cool slightly.
  7. In another bowl, sift together the flour, the baking powder, the cocoa and the salt.
  8. Stir in the melted chocolate in the cream cheese mixture. Gradually add the sifted flour mixture stirring well with a spatula until is incorporated.
  9. Pour ¾ of the cake mixture into the prepared loaf pan.
  10. Break the milk chocolate into pieces and add half of it to the dough pressing slightly to fully cover it.
  11. Cover with the remaining cake mixture and arrange the other half of the chocolate on the surface of the plum cake without submerge it completely in the dough.
