Pre heat the oven to 150 Centigrade for ten minutes. In a bowl add the Astra and sugar and beat well. Beat the ingredients in one direction, starting from the lowest speed and gradually increasing until both ingredients are combined well. Once the ingredients are well combined and the mixture has gotten lighter in color, add in one egg at a time and mix well. Once the mixture has been combined well, using a sieve, add in the flour, corn flour, cocoa powder and baking powder and sieve it into the mix. Using a spatula combine all dry ingredients well in the same direction until all ingredients have combined well. Then add in the chocolate flavor and fresh milk and mix the batter well until all ingredients are well combined. Then separate the cake batter in to two cake moulds and bake for 35 to 45 minutes. Once the cakes are baked, decorate with Butter cream icing and chocolate drips as per your liking and serve!
