Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (356°F). Grease a cake mold with butter and set aside.

- Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared mold and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Prepare the Chocolate Syrup: While the cake is baking, prepare the chocolate syrup by mixing 1 cup of milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder.
- Soak the Cake: Once the cake is baked, let it cool slightly and then soak it with the prepared chocolate syrup. This step ensures that the cake stays moist and rich in flavor.
- Make the Passion Fruit Mousse: In a blender, combine the passion fruit juice, condensed milk, cream, and powdered milk. Blend until the mixture is very creamy.
- Top the Cake with Mousse: Pour the passion fruit mousse over the soaked cake. Ensure it’s spread evenly.
- Chill: Refrigerate the cake for 3 hours to allow the mousse to set.
- Serve: Once chilled, your Secret Chocolate Cake with Passion Fruit Mousse is ready to be served. Slice and enjoy this heavenly combination of flavors
