- Chocolate bar;
- Walnuts - to taste;

Preparation:Mix flour, milk, eggs and salt in a bowl until you get a smooth dough. Then pour some vegetable oil into a non-stick frying pan and hold it for one or two minutes over medium heat. After removing the pan from the stove, wipe it with a paper towel. Return it to the stove and pour in as much dough as needed to cover the entire bottom. Bake the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on each side until they acquire a golden color. Next, according to our recipe, you should make two very tasty fillings for the cake layer. To do this, melt the chocolate in a water bath, adding butter and a little salt, stirring from time to time. While the chocolate mass is cooking, grind the pre-roasted walnuts. You can do this either with a mortar or by placing the nuts in a plastic bag and rolling them with a rolling pin. When the nuts are finely ground, pour them into the melted chocolate, add 50-100 ml of cream and stir well. That's it, the first filling is ready! Now you have a difficult task - to resist the temptation and not eat what you got, so that you have something to spread on the layers of the future cake. To resist temptation, take a break from the chocolate treat by preparing the second cream for the filling. To do this, beat the remaining cream with sugar and vanilla until you get a thick mass. Assembling the pancake cake Now let's get to the most interesting part - start "building" the cake. On the dish that you have prepared for dessert, put a little chocolate cream (so that the first cake is soaked in it at the bottom and is not dry), then put the first pancake. Spread it with chocolate mixture, place the second pancake and spread it with whipped cream. Continue to lay out the pancakes, alternating chocolate and cream, until you get the product of the desired height. Just do not forget to leave some cream for the very top layer. Using a spatula or a wide knife, spread the top and sides, then sprinkle the dessert with grated chocolate and decorate with raspberries or cherries. Do not even doubt - everyone will love your creation so much that there will not be a crumb left! And if you treat your friends with it, then be prepared for the fact that they will ask you to share the recipe.
