1
Preheat oven to 180 degrees C
1. Put the Sugar, Butter/Margarine, flour eggs and cocoa powder in a bowl.
2. Mix with a electric whisk until smooth and creamy.
3. Pour evenly between 2 separate tins.
4. Place in oven for 20-30 minutes.
5. Take out of the oven and put on a wire wrack to cool down.
6. While the cake is cooling make the butter icing... Mix the icing sugar, butter/margarine and cocoa powder together until thick and creamy.
7. Once the cake has cooled down you can then put half the butter icing in the middle of the cake and half on the top of the cake.
8. Next break up the flake and sprinkle it on top, then add the buttons to make a fancy pattern. (you do not have to use buttons/flake this is just a suggestion, as it tastes really nice with them).
