Instructions
Make the Chocolate Bundt Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Prepare a 12 cup bundt pan by brushing it with melted butter.
- Sieve the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt into a large mixing bowl.
- Use a whisk to mix together then and the brown sugar and mix again. Make a well in the center.
- In a separate bowl or jug, mix together the eggs, canola oil, soured cream and coffee.
- Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients beating well as you go.
- Transfer the cake batter into the bundt pan, the mixture will look very thin and runny. The mixture will fill the tin to two-thirds full.
- Bake in the center of the preheated oven for 25 minutes
- Leave to cool in the bundt pan for 10 minutes before inverting on to a cake stand or wire rack. Leave to cool completely before frosting.
Make the Chocolate Ganache
- Chop the chocolate finely and add it to a heatproof bowl
- Pour the cream into a saucepan placed over a medium heat. When the cream is almost at boiling point, remove it from the heat and pour it on top of the chopped chocolate.
- Leave the chocolate and cream to sit untouched in the bowl for 3 minutes.
- After 3 minutes, very slowly stir the chocolate and cream together using a metal spoon or rubber spatula.
- Keep stirring until the cream and chocolate have come together into a glossy ganache.
- Immediately pour the ganache on top of the chocolate bundt cake.
