Preheat the oven to 355 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

In a bowl pour the milk, add butter, and heat them au bain-Marie until the chocolate melted.
Let the chocolate mixture cool down a bit.
Beat the butter and sugar until it’s light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, one by one, until they are fully incorporated.
Whisk the chocolate mixture into the batter.
With a spatula gently mix the self-raising flour into the batter.
Pour the batter into the baking dish and bake for 45-55 minutes in the oven, until the cake is ready.
Let the cake cool down to room temperature.
Slice the cake horizontally, so you will get two layers.
Smear one side with half of the chocolate mousse.
Lay the other layer onto the chocolate mousse.
Smear the top and side with the rest of the chocolate mousse.
Place the kit-kats vertically around the cake. Sprinkle the smarties on the cake.
