Ingredients

For the base:
- 6 eggs
- 6 tablespoons of sugar
- 1 packet of chocolate-flavored Crem Ole
- 3 tablespoons of cocoa (for an extra intensity of flavor)

For cream 1:
- 250 ml liquid cream
- 200 ml milk
- 1 packet of vanilla-flavored Crem Ole

For cream 2:
- 250 ml liquid cream
- 200 ml milk
- 1 packet of chocolate-flavored Crem Ole

For the glaze:
- 100 g dark chocolate
- 100 ml cream
- 50 g butter
- 50 ml brandy (optional, but recommended for a more refined taste)

Instructions

1. Preparing the base:
Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites with sugar using a mixer until you achieve a firm, meringue-like consistency. Gradually add the yolks, mixing well after each addition. Finally, fold in the packet of chocolate-flavored Crem Ole and the 3 tablespoons of cocoa, mixing gently with a spatula to avoid losing air in the mixture.

2. Baking the base:
Line a cake pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan and place it in a preheated oven at 160°C. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the base cool in the pan for a few minutes, then remove it and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

3. Preparing cream 1:
In a bowl, combine the milk, liquid cream, and the packet of vanilla-flavored Crem Ole. Mix until the cream becomes firm. Once the base has completely cooled, place it back in the cake pan lined with plastic wrap on the sides. Add the vanilla cream and refrigerate the cake for 30 minutes.

4. Preparing cream 2:
Repeat the process for the chocolate cream: mix the milk, cream, and the packet of chocolate-flavored Crem Ole. After cream 1 has set, pour the chocolate cream over it and refrigerate the cake for a few hours, ideally overnight.

5. Preparing the glaze:
In a saucepan, bring the cream to a boil, then add the chocolate, butter, and brandy, stirring continuously until the chocolate is completely melted. Allow the glaze to cool to room temperature.

6. Finishing the cake:
Remove the cake from the pan and pour the chocolate glaze over it, spreading it evenly. You can decorate the cake as you wish, with nuts, fruits, or chocolate flakes. Refrigerate until the glaze sets.

Serving suggestions

The Krem a la Krem cake is delicious on its own, but you can serve it alongside a scoop of ice cream or with a fruit sauce for a contrast of flavors. You can also add a dollop of fresh cream on top of each serving for an elegant touch.

Possible variations

You can experiment with different flavors of Crem Ole, such as caramel or coffee, to give the cake a personalized touch. Also, for a gluten-free cake, you can replace the flour with a gluten-free variant.

This cake is perfect for birthdays, holidays, or any other festive occasion. With a bit of patience and love, you will create a dessert that will delight everyone!
