Ah . . . . . . many, many, many moons later and I'm back. Been working, going to the lake, loving, crying, etc., etc., etc. Anyway, here is the chocolate cake for 2 I made on Valentine's Day for The Husband. I tried a sourcream chocolate cake for a 6 inch in diameter, 2" tall pan -- I only had two 6 inch pans that were about one-half inch tall so I used both of them. My oven at the lake can be hot, so it over-cooked a little. Oh, well, what is a girl to do but POUR ON THE CHOCOLATE GANACHE ! I whipped up some chocolate ganache, let it cool in the fridge and then whisked until just thick enough. Bathed it over the first layer, then topped the second layer and sides. Let it cool in the fridge again while i made the ganache glaze. Poured it over the top and as it continued to cool glazed the sides with the drippings -- it truly was incredible.
I guess I need to work on my blogging technique a little -- we do have some great pictures of food. Dessert is in the works for this weekend for a little neighborhood dinner. I'll see what I can come up with and what The Girlfriend decides on. Until then . . . . . !
