Chocolate Jody – Cake from Heaven
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk and sour cream. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
-
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over the chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth.
-
Once the cake has cooled, pour the chocolate ganache over the top. Let it set for 30 minutes.
-
Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh berries before serving.
