Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease three 20cm round cake tins and line the bases with baking parchment. To make the cake, put the cocoa in a bowl, add 280ml boiling water and whisk until dissolved. Pour in the stout, mix, then set aside to cool.
- In a stand mixer or a large bowl using an electric hand whisk, beat together the butter, both sugars and vanilla extract until light and fluffy (about 5 mins). Add the eggs little by little, mixing until fully incorporated before adding more. Once all the egg has been added, spoon in the melted chocolate and mix to combine.
- In another bowl, mix the flour, bicarb and 1/2 tsp salt. Add this mixture to the butter mixture in three stages, alternating with the stout mixture (which will be very runny). Pour the batter equally between the prepared tins and bake for 25-30 mins until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tins for 10 mins, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the buttercream, put the egg whites and sugar in a heatproof bowl and set over a pan of gently simmering water. Stir with a whisk until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is warm to the touch. Remove the bowl from the heat and beat with an electric hand whisk on high speed until the mixture has tripled in volume and has cooled down. Slowly add the butter 1 tbsp at a time while continuing to whisk. Once all the butter has been added, the mixture should look glossy and thick – if it doesn’t, keep whisking until it does, or if the bowl still feels warm, chill for 10 mins before whisking again. Once ready, mix in the melted white chocolate.
- To assemble the cake, put one of the cake layers on a cake stand and top with a layer of buttercream. Repeat with the other two layers. Spread the remaining buttercream all over the cake, using a spatula or palette knife to smooth the sides. Chill for 1 hr or until the buttercream is firm (see tip, below).
- To decorate, melt the marshmallows in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring from time to time. Remove from the heat and put to one side for a few mins until the mixture is cool enough to handle. Use your fingers to grab a small amount of the marshmallow and stretch it out to form long strands (dipping your fingers in vegetable or sunflower oil will help!) Drape the strands over the cake in a random pattern, so it’s thoroughly covered. Create a spider using the sugar paste (roll two balls, one bigger than the other, for the body, and thin strands for the legs) and place on top of the cake. Will keep for up to three days in an airtight container.

- Make the white ganache in a similar way but because there’s so little cream this time, microwave it with the chopped white chocolate for 20 seconds, then let it stand for a minute. Whisk together, put into a piping bag and drizzle the spider web pattern over the cake: drizzle a spiral starting from the centre, drag lines across the spiral from the middle outwards and pipe more ganache along those lines. Leave to set.

Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas 4. Line a bun tin with fairy cake cases. Put the 100g of chocolate pieces, butter and 50ml water into a small pan. Stir over a gentle heat until the chocolate melts, then set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar and cocoa. Break up any lumps of sugar with your fingers. In another bowl, beat together the egg and yogurt.
Stir the egg and chocolate mixtures into the flour and mix well. Spoon this mixture into 15 fairy cake cases (you may have to cook these in a couple of batches). Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cupcakes have risen and are firm to the touch. Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
For the icing, heat the cream in a pan until starting to boil. Stir in the 50g of finely chopped chocolate and sugar until the mixture is smooth. Allow to cool, then spoon over the cupcakes.
Melt the white chocolate, then drizzle spiral shapes over the cupcakes, or use the icing pen. With a cocktail stick, pull lines through the circles to make the web effect. Allow to set.
