Ingredients (serves 8):
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Cooking Tips:
- Use room temperature eggs and butter for a smoother batter.
- Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together to avoid lumps in the batter.
- Do not overmix the batter to prevent a tough texture.
Cooking Process:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line it with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. To make the ganache, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it starts to simmer.
10. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
11. Pour the ganache over the cooled cake and let it set for 10-15 minutes before serving.
