How To Make Chocolate Medovik – Chocolate Honey Cake

Ever since I made Medovik – Russian Honey Cake, I’ve been wanting to try a chocolate version of it. I finally did and it was totally fun. Chocolate Medovik – Chocolate Honey Cake consists of eight layers of honey cocoa with cocoa cream filling and topped with chocolate glaze. The layers will be softened by the filling and they simply melt in your mouth.
