📌 Tips for a perfect cake:
✔️ Sift the flour and cocoa powder to avoid lumps and achieve a smoother texture.
✔️ If you want a moister cake, you can add ½ cup of heavy cream to the mixture.
✔️ Let cool completely before decorating so the melted chocolate doesn’t slide off.
✔️ For a special touch, add chocolate pieces to the batter before baking.
