Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    A labor of love, as any Milk Bar layer cake will be, but absolutely worth the time, money, and effort. This is hands down the best chocolate cake I’ve ever had. I made it for my husband’s birthday, and it was so good that one of his friends asked his wife to make it for his birthday. Luckily I had plenty of feuilletine leftover to share. It’s just really a phenomenal cake. Every element is perfection in flavor and texture.
