Super Moist Chocolate Cake with Perfect Chocolate Ganache
Instructions:
Make the Chocolate Cake:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla to the dry ingredients. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
Stir in boiling water (batter will be thin). Pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the pans, then remove cakes from pans and let cool completely on wire racks.
Prepare the Chocolate Ganache:
Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Place chopped chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Pour hot cream over the chocolate and let sit for 2-3 minutes.
Stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is smooth. Add butter and mix until glossy.
