Chocolate Ganache
Cake
1 stick unsalted butter at room temp
1 1/2 cups
organic cane sugar
4 large eggs
8 oz. homemade
chocolate sauce
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 Tbsp. vanilla
1 cup organic
AP flour
For the Ganache:
1/2 cup heavy cream
8 oz. good semi-sweet
chocolate chips
1 tsp. instant coffee granules
Heat oven to 325.
Butter and flour a 9" cake pan (I always line mine with parchment paper to be
sure the cake doesn't stick).
Cream the butter and sugar until light and
fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Mix in the hot
fudge, cocoa powder and vanilla. Add the flour. Mix until just combined.
Don't overbeat. Pour into the pan and bake about 45 minutes, until just set in
the middle. Let cool thoroughly in the pan.
For the ganache, heat the
cream, chocolate and coffee in a double boiler just until the chocolate melts
and the ganache is smooth.
Place the cake upside down
on a wire rack and pour the warm glaze evenly over the top. Transfer to a
serving plate. Or just keep it in the pan and spread the ganache over
top.
Do not refrigerate the cake after it's glazed.
