Then half the flour and then the rest of the cocoa and finish with flour. Mix well and distribute in the 3 molds and level them well.

To prepare the bitumen: Put chocolate in pieces, espresso, butter and salt in a bowl. Apart heat the cream in a saucepan until it boils and pour it over the chocolate, stir until it melts and forms a homogeneous mixture, add vanilla. Refrigerate for 2 hours until firm enough.
When you are ready to decorate the cake, beat the chocolate mixture with a hand mixer , at first it will look very thick, until the color looks lighter, the consistency is spreadable and retains the shape. Decorate the cake immediately with a spatula, putting a bit of bitumen between each layer, decorating the sides and the top part.
