- Transfer the batter equally into the arranged pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out spotless.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then take them out of the pans and allow them to cool fully on a stand.
For the Chocolate Cream:
- Take a bowl and combine the powdered sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder.
- Beat the mixture until it reaches stiff peaks and becomes thick and creamy.
Assembly:
