Plum Mole Hill Cake with jam – notes
You probably know the mole hill cake in a version with bananas inside?
I prepared a plum mole hill cake inspired by the upcoming Christmas holidays.
The base of my cake is an amazing chocolate cake with a lot of plum jam from Stovit.
The cake practically smells of them, and the plums are noticeable in the taste.
It’s hard to resist, and I must admit that I snacked on the cake myself during its preparation.
After baking, we cut off the top and additionally hollow out the cake slightly.
And I snacked on those cut-out pieces because I couldn’t resist. Fortunately, what was left was enough to sprinkle over the entire top :)
Then I made a chocolate-gingerbread cream.
I mixed mascarpone cheese with melted chocolate and gingerbread spice, and when it cooled, I whipped it with heavy cream.
Now it was enough to add an extra portion of jam and cream to the hollowed-out cake. The cream should form a protruding dome, which, after being sprinkled with cake crumbs, looks exactly like a mole hill.
I tell you, the cake tasted amazing and disappeared very quickly.
Even my son, who rarely eats cakes, really enjoyed it :)
So I highly recommend this plum mole hill cake as well as other delicious cream cakes from the blog.

Plum Mole Mound Cake Recipe
Mole Mound (Kopiec kreta) is a highly popular chocolate cream cake. It is usually made from a boxed mix, but you can easily make it from scratch, and it will taste a million times better! The recipe for this Mole Mound cake is straightforward, and the result is absolutely fantastic. Traditionally, a Mole Mound consists of a chocolate cake base topped with bananas, which are then covered in cream and sprinkled with crumbled cake on top. I decided to put a slightly different flavor twist on this classic dessert. I made the chocolate cake using real chocolate and plum jam (powidła), which made the sponge incredibly moist and packed with flavor. I also spread a layer of plum jam directly onto the cake base. For the filling, I went with a lightly chocolatey cream infused with gingerbread spice.
