the batter between the two prepared pans and smooth the surface with a spatula.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: Preparation of the Vanilla Cream<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In a saucepan, heat the milk until it is hot but not boiling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In a separate bowl, mix the sugar and flour.&nbsp;Add the egg yolks and beat well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gradually pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transfer the mixture back to the

well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the vanilla cream cool.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: Preparation of the Chocolate Covering<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol

the mixture is smooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Let the chocolate coating cool until it reaches a consistency that can be spread over the cake.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4: Assembling the Dutch Cake<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Place one of the cake layers on a serving plate and spread the vanilla cream evenly over the layer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place the second cake layer on top and press lightly to secure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pour the chocolate icing over the top of the cake, letting it drip down the sides.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours
