Preparation
Natural cake batter : Mix eggs + sugar. Add cream and mix again. Add flour + baking powder + salt and mix. Then, add melted butter, mix and set aside.
Chocolate cake batter : Repeat the operation but melt butter with chocolate before adding it to the batter. Mix and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 330°F (165°C). Pour the different batters gradually in the greased mold with two different tablespoons. Form waves on top with a spatula.
Bake 50 min at 330°F (165°C). Remove from oven and leave to cool down.
Crunchy pralin crust : Melt the chocolate and mix it with the praline. Crumble the lacy crepes and mix with them with the chocolate + pralin mix. Add melted butter and mix well.
When the cake is cold, cut the top, remove it and eat it ;-).
Unmold the marble cake. Put a baking sheet in the mold and put the cake inside. Spread the crunchy pralin crust on top. Freeze for 15 minutes.
Almond and chocolate glaze : Put the almond on a baking sheet and bake for 15 min at 340°F (170°C). Leave to cool down and crush them.
Melt the chocolate. Add oil and mix. Add almond and mix well.
Unmold the cake on a grid (crunchy praline crust downward). Coat the cake with the glaze and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
* You can replace almonds with your favorite nuts. * You can add vanilla extract or lemon zests to your natural cake batter. * Use your favorite chocolate to make the glaze !
