Made for a friend – 2 6×6 dark chocolate cakes, 2 6×6 white chocolate cakes.

First time I’d used this recipe, it was really nice and will definitely be using again!

Melt 100g chocolate in a bain marie with 200g butter and 2.5 fl oz water

Sieve 12oz plain flour with, stir in 250g light brown sugar

Mix the two together and stir in 2.5 fl oz soured cream and 2 beaten eggs

Cook at 190C for around 45 minutes

It’s covered in a white chocolate ganache.. a lot of crumbs got caught up in it and I didn’t have enough :-/

The cake cut down to size

All the offcuts!

And the cake covered in ganache

And finally the cake completely finished, after being attacked with butter icing to cover up as many of the flaws as possible!
