Happy holidays! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who is ready to dive head first into this decadent chocolate fudge cake? It features a dark chocolate ganache frosting & a sprinkle of smoked sea salt flakes. This chocolate cake is what all chocolate cake dreams are made of. A mature take on a classic childhood favourite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Although the holidays are my favourite season to bake up a storm of fancy desserts, this year I have been focusing on simplified recipes. This cake is simple to make, while remaining elegant. A cake you would be proud to present at the table of any holiday gathering. Finished with effortless swirls of frosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The frosting is a traditional ganache using a blend of quality dark chocolate & heavy cream. No buttercream or powdered sugar, just pure chocolate goodness. That being said, it is important to use a quality chocolate in this recipe. Something with a percentage of 70% or above. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Now time to light a fire, watch the snow fall outside & have a slice of this chocolate cake! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas & a Happy New Year! Cheers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chocolate Fudge Cake with Smoked Sea Salt <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

For the cake:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • 2 cups granulated sugar<\/li>
  • 1 cup vegetable oil<\/li>
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract<\/li>
  • 3\/4 cup dutch-process cocoa powder<\/li>
  • 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder <\/li>
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature <\/li>
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream<\/li>
  • 2 cups all purpose flour<\/li>
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda<\/li>
  • 1 teaspoon salt<\/li>
  • 1 cup boiling water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    For the ganache:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • 12 ounces quality dark chocolate, roughly chopped<\/li>
    • 1 1\/2 cups heavy cream<\/li>
    • Maldon’s Crystal Smoked Sea Salt, for topping<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      For the cake:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Preheat the oven to 350F degrees. Grease, flour & line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper. Set aside.<\/li>
      2. In a large mixing bowl whisk together the sugar, oil, vanilla, cocoa powder, espresso powder, eggs & sour cream until smooth. <\/li>
      3. Sift in the flour, baking soda & salt. Stir until just combined. <\/li>
      4. Add the water & gently whisk in until silky smooth.<\/li>
      5. Evenly divide batter amongst prepared cake pans. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the top bounces back to touch. Let cool completely before removing from pans.<\/li>
      6. Frost cake in a swirling motion with the ganache. To create effortless swirls, use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon. Sprinkle the top with smoked sea salt. Serve at room temperature. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        For the ganache: <\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        1. In a saucepan over medium heat bring cream to a gentle simmer. Remove from heat. <\/li>
        2. Place chocolate in a large mixing bowl & add the cream. Whisk gently until the chocolate fully melts into the cream. <\/li>
        3. Cover with plastic wrap & chill for 30 minutes. Using an electric hand mixer, beat the ganache until fluffy, about 2 minutes.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
