Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Grease and line two 20cm/8in sandwich tins.
2

For the cake, place all of the cake ingredients, except the boiling water, into a large mixing bowl. Using a wooden spoon, or electric whisk, beat the mixture until smooth and well combined.
3

Add the boiling water to the mixture, a little at a time, until smooth. (The cake mixture will now be very liquid.)
4

Remove the cakes from the oven and allow to cool completely, still in their tins, before icing.
5

Divide the cake batter between the sandwich tins and bake in the oven for 25–35 minutes, or until the top is firm to the touch and a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
6

Spread a little chocolate icing over the top of one of the chocolate cake and sprinkle some dry fruits.
