Christmas Calendar 2020 Day 3 - chocolate cake with P-tærter

Some time ago I baked this chocolate cake. And I found, that you easily could twist this cake recipe in many different direction. So today I am sharing one of these twists with you as the daily Christmas Calendar entries. The twist I am doing today is to replace the chocolate with P-tærte, which as a Danish candy in form French nougat with peanuts and coated with dark chocolate. So here you cut the individual P-tærte into smaller pieces. 

I decided to double up the portion, however you can easy divide the below mentioned recipe into half, if you only need a small chocolate cake.
