Klop en Gebak Chocolate Cake Recipe

I'm home recovering from an epic weekend. Sadly I will have to return to work tomorrow if I want to convince my parents that I am well enough to play in our first soccer match of the new season.  



I have the definitive urge to bake again- could be my ego hungry for the praise from last weeks success. 

I haven't decided whether to make biscuits or chocolate cake. Decisions. I will post some pictures once I'm done :)

Topping:

(I don't do the jam thing. In fact I bake my cake in a round tin with a hole in it (I think it's called a doughnut).)
Spread cake with apricot jam
Mix together icing  and coconut (dry) and sprinkle on cake

Topping for choc cake

1 can of nestle cream (a half of the big one or one small one)
1 slab of Cadbury chocolate

Melt chocolate in microwave. Add cream and mix. Wait until cake cools down, top with a layer of jam then top with chocolate mixture.
(I melt the chocolate in a glass dish over a pot of boiling water.)
