Instructions
1 Make ganache
- Preheat the oven to 170°C (no fan).
- In a small saucepan over low heat, add the 10g butter, whipping cream, and milk chocolate.
- Sift in the icing sugar, cocoa powder, and a small pinch of salt.
- Cook, whisking often until hot and smooth, but do not let it boil.
- Pour the ganache into a container, and cover with a lid.
- Chill in the fridge until the cake is ready.
2 Prep dry ingredients
- Meanwhile, to a large bowl, sift in the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder and baking soda.
- Add the sugar and whisk well until combined. Set aside.
- Boil the measured water, and pour into a cup or jug with a spout.
- Add the instant coffee, and mix until dissolved.
3 Prep wet ingredients
- In another bowl, add the 50g butter and melt in the microwave.
- Cool slightly, then whisk in the vegetable oil, sour cream, egg and vanilla until creamy.
4 Combine batter
- Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
- Whisk until mostly combined, then pour in the hot coffee and mix really well.
- The batter will be smooth with a runny consistency.
Tip! The hot coffee won't impart much flavour, but will only enhance the rich chocolate in the cake, and dissolve the sugar.
5 Bake
- Grease and line a 20 cm small round baking cake pan with parchment paper, and wrap a sheet of foil around the outside of the pan.
- Pour the batter into the pan and bake in the center rack of the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean in the center.
- Cool the cake completely in the pan for 1 hour, or chill in the fridge for 30 min.
Tip! The foil will help the cake bake more evenly.
6 Serve
- When ready to serve, turn the cake out onto a plate. (You can leave it as is, or slice across the center to create two layers).
- Whisk the ganache until smooth.
- Add on top of the cake and spread towards the edges.
- Cut the Matilda Triple Chocolate Cake with Fudgy Ganache in slices and enjoy!
Tip! Make sure to cool the cake completely before attempting to frost with ganache. Otherwise it will slide right off!
