Re: chocolate cake filling help

you would fill it with chocolate buttercream.
heres the recipe:

bake the cake a day in advance and let it cool. then wrap in cling wrap and put in the fridge overnight. this will help minimize crumbs and make it easier to slice. pipe an edge of icing all around the cake once you’ve sliced it and then fill it. this way you wont have uneven icing poking through the edges when you place the top half of the cake back on.

here are some how-to’s

Just use nutella - works fantastically well especially as icing on cupcakes :)
