Zubereitung von Speckled Chocolate Cake With Ganache
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Divide batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cakes are cooling, prepare the ganache: In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler), melt the chocolate and heavy cream, stirring occasionally, until smooth and glossy.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer with half of the ganache. Top with the second cake layer and frost the entire cake with the remaining ganache.
