Zubereitung von Decadent Chocolate Lemon Ganache Cake
- Heat 1 cup heavy whipping cream and 2 teaspoons lemon zest in a large saucepan over medium-low heat until hot.
- Add 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and cook for 5 minutes, or until melted, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat, cover, and chill for at least 5 hours.
- Meanwhile, melt 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate and 1 teaspoon lemon zest in a small saucepan.
- Let the melted unsweetened chocolate cool completely.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Set aside the dry ingredients.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add 2 cups granulated sugar, beating until light and fluffy.
- Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients and 1 cup plain yogurt to the wet ingredients, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
- Stir in the cooled melted unsweetened chocolate mixture just until blended.
- Divide the batter evenly among three lightly greased 9-inch round cake pans.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Once the ganache is chilled, beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat.
- Frost the cooled cake layers with the whipped ganache.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the ganache to set.
