Ingredients

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven and prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions (or bake it as cupcakes).
2. Pour the batter into two greased 21 cm round pans.
3. Bake the cakes according to the package directions.
4. Cool completely on a wire rack, then refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
5. Coarsely chop the 6 Bar-One bars. Heat the dessert and cooking cream in the microwave until warm.
6. Add the chopped chocolate, leave for 5 minutes without stirring, then stir until smooth and glossy.
7. Set the ganache aside to cool to a warm, pourable consistency that clings to the cake.
8. To shape a heart: score a plus sign on top, cut off the two bottom wedges, attach them to the top with icing, and trim a small triangle from the centre to form the dip.
9. Apply a thin crumb coat of chocolate icing and chill for 15 minutes. Add a thick final layer, stack the second cake on top and ice the sides smooth.
10. Pour the ganache over the top to drip down the sides. Pipe the caramel treat and add the extra Bar-One pieces on top.
11. Chill to set, then slice and serve.
