Chocolate fudge cake (chefnun)

"Recipe for cake base which can be complemented with various frosting. I made coffee swiss meringue buttercream in the picture. The cake texture is somewhat brownie-like but less dense. When whisking the ingredients, this is just to mix them to blend and not to get the batter to trap air. Thus whisking by hand is ok. If hand mixer is used, keep at low speed."
