Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Layers:

1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)

2 cups granulated sugar

4 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

For the Whipped Cream Filling:

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Assembly:

1/2 cup chocolate syrup (store-bought or homemade)

Chocolate shavings or sprinkles (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Brownies:

    - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a bit hanging over the sides for easy removal later.

      - In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, remove from heat and mix in the granulated sugar until well combined.

        - Add the eggs to the butter-sugar mixture, one at a time, stirring well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

          - In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

            - Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

              - Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before removing and cutting into two equal layers.

                Make the Whipped Cream Filling:

                  - In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.

                    - Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, or it will turn into butter.

                      Assemble the Cake:

                        - On a serving platter, place one layer of the brownies (cut-side up). Drizzle half of the chocolate syrup over the brownie layer.

                          - Spread half of the whipped cream filling evenly over the brownie layer.

                            - Place the second brownie layer on top (cut-side down) and repeat the process with the remaining chocolate syrup and whipped cream.

                              - Cover the top of the cake with any leftover whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles.

                                Chill:

                                  - Cover the assembled cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and the layers to set properly.

                                    Serve:

                                      - Before serving, remove the cake from the refrigerator and allow it to sit for about 10 minutes. Lift carefully using the parchment paper overhang, and slice into squares or rectangles. Enjoy your decadent Choco-Layered Delight!
