Description
A rich, moist chocolate cake topped with a sinful chocolate ganache. A big crowd pleaser!
Ingredients
- 1-⅓ cup Plain Flour
- 2 Tablespoons Cocoa
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
- 7 ounces, weight Good Quality, Dark Chocolate
- 8 ounces, weight Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup Caster Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 4 whole Eggs
- ½ cups Full Cream Milk
Preparation
Preheat oven to 160C and grease and line a 24cm cake pan. (I use a springform pan.)
Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda together in a bowl and set aside.
Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl and allow to cool slightly.
Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Switch to medium speed and add vanilla and eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Pour in cooled chocolate and beat until combined.
Beat in a third of the sifted ingredients, a third of the milk and repeat until all ingredients are combined.
Beat until smooth but be careful not to overbeat!
Pour mix into a 24cm cake pan and bake for 45 to 55 minutes.
Cool for 10 minutes in the pan before transferring onto a cake rake to cool completely.
When cool, top with chocolate ganache.
