CHOCOLATE CAKES WITH GANACHE GLAZE
Refrigerating the glazed cakes will help them set more quickly, but they will lose some of their shine. If there's time and you prefer a shiny glaze, let the cakes set at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 8-inch round cake pans and dust with cocoa, tapping out excess. Sift cocoa, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and 3/4 teaspoon salt into the bowl of a mixer. Beat on low speed until just combined.
- Raise speed to medium, and add eggs, buttermilk, warm water, oil, and vanilla. Beat until smooth, about 3 minutes.
- Divide batter between pans. Bake until set and a toothpick inserted into center of each comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cakes cool in pans set on wire racks for 15 minutes. Turn out cakes. Let cool completely.
- Transfer 1 cake to a wire rack set on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour half the warm ganache over top; pour in center, then slowly but steadily pour around edges, allowing ganache to drip down sides and cover cake. Let stand for 15 minutes. Transfer cake to a cake stand. Repeat with remaining cake and ganache.
- Let cakes stand until set, about 3 hours at room temperature or 1 hour in the refrigerator.
THE BEST CHOCOLATE GANACHE CAKE

Steps:
- Bring the heavy whipping cream to a gentle boil and pour it over the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Set it aside for one minute.
- Whisk the two ingredients until it's all combined. Next, add the softened butter and whisk until your ganache becomes homogenous.
- Cover the bowl with cling film and set it aside for a couple of hours before assembling. A rested ganache gives the best texture for spreading!
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line bottoms of two 9" round baking pans with parchment paper and grease the sides with baking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking cocoa, baking powder, and baking soda. Set it aside.
- In a separate, large bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar. Gradually add oil and whisk until it's all combined. Add the milk, coffee, and vanilla extract, gently whisking with every addition
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk until it's all combined. The batter will be light and fairly runny; that's totally normal.
- Transfer batters to the prepared pans. Bake in the middle rack for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool for 10-15 minutes before inverting them onto a cooling rack. Finally, allow an additional 40-45 minutes of cooling; the cakes should be at room temperature before assembling.
- Slice a bit off the top of each cake to remove the domes and even the cakes out.
- Place a large dollop of the ganache into the center of the first cake and spread it out using an offset spatula.
- Carefully place the second cake over the top, crumb-side down.
- Spread the remaining ganache over the top and the sides.
- Top your cake off with fresh berries or your favorite cake topping! Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan, then line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time. Mix in the chocolate syrup and vanilla. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Don't overbeat, or the cake will be tough.
- Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until just set in the middle. Don't overbake! Let cool thoroughly in the pan.
- For the ganache, cook the heavy cream, chocolate chips, and instant coffee in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until smooth and warm, stirring occasionally.
- Place the cake upside down on a wire rack and pour the glaze evenly over the top, making sure to cover the entire cake and sides. You can tilt the rack to smooth the glaze. Decorate with candied violets, if desired, or gently crumble the gold leaf and place it on the center of the cake. Do not refrigerate.

REAL CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH GANACHE
I saw this recipe being made on Good Food Live one day and it looked delicious. I now use this cake in my baking rotation and there is never a crumb left. Try and use the best quality chocolate you can-it does make a difference. For a variation on the ganache, try adding some grated orange zest or chopped mint or even some finely chopped nuts.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place a mixing bowl in the freezer to chill.
- Combine the water, butter, and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the flour. Cook and stir until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the pan and forms a ball. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Spread the dough evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Bake the pastry in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. (The dough will rise and make a boat shape, but should drop as it cools.) Cool completely on wire rack.
- Remove the chilled mixing bowl from the freezer and pour in 2 cups of cold whipping cream. Whip until the cream thickens, about 1 minute; stir in the confectioners' sugar and the vanilla extract. Continue to whip until the cream forms stiff peaks. Refrigerate the whipped cream while you mix the pudding.
- Pour the pudding mixes and the milk into a mixing bowl and stir until creamy. Fold in the whipped cream. Spread the filling over the cooled crust and refrigerate.
- Place the chopped chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Bring 1 cup of cream almost to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and allow it to soften for 1 minute. Whisk the mixture until smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly to thicken, about 10 minutes. Pour the ganache over the cream filling, spreading to cover the entire surface. Return the pan to the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
