## Ingredients

- cocoa powder
- chocolate
- coffee
- rye flour
- buttermilk
- cream
- butter

## Instructions

1. Prepare a classic salted caramel, adding more cream than usual so it remains fluid when cold and can be whipped into a spreadable cream.
2. Make the cake using the muffin method, combining cocoa powder, chocolate, coffee, rye flour, and buttermilk.
3. Prepare the ganache by adding warm cream to melted chocolate and stirring until well emulsified.
4. Add butter to the ganache and mix until combined, using a hand mixer to ensure proper emulsification.
5. Whip the salted caramel.
6. Layer the cake with whipped caramel and chocolate, repeating until there are four layers of chocolate cake.
7. Finish the cake with the remaining ganache, leaving it as rustic as desired.

## Equipment

- hand mixer

## Tips

- Do not overmix the cake batter because rye flour can make things gummy if mixed for too long.
- Leave the ganache rustic for a "Bruce Bogtrotter Matilda-esque" look.
