Chocolate Hot Milk Sponge - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Cake
    1 1/4 cups flour
    1/2 cup cocoa
    1 pinch salt
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    5 medium eggs
    1 1/4 cups sugar
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1 ounce dark chocolate (Melted)
    1/2 cup milk
    4 ounces butter
    Filling Ingredients
    2 cups heavy whipping cream
    4 tablespoons powdered sugar
    4 tablespoons chocolate syrup, like Hershey's
    2 tablespoons cocoa
    2 teaspoons vanilla
Preparation
    Sift flour, cocoa, salt and baking powder. Set aside.
    Beat eggs and sugar until thick and creamy. Add oil and vanilla.
    Beat 5 minutes.
    Add melted chocolate.
    Place milk and butter in saucepan and stir until butter has melted and mixture comes to a boil. Remove at once.
    Add milk mixture alternately to the egg mixture with sifted dry ingredients. (I do not let it cool before alternately adding with the dry ingredients.).
    Pour into 2- 9 inch round greased and floured (or use cocoa) pans and bake at 350* for 10-15 minutes.(do not overbake, layers are thin).
    Cool, fill and frost as desired.
    Filling instructions:
    Beat all ingredients until spreading consistency (I beat quite stiff). Decorate with white chocolate shavings.
    Note: There is enough whipped frosting to generously fill in between the layers.
