    Loved this recipe. It will be my new go to chocolate cake recipe and have shared it with my thermomix friends. My ganache wasnt very runny but I was a little short on the sour cream. I thought I had greased my bundt pan really well but it still stuck a little, will be even more thorough next time!

    Beautiful moist cake with an excellent texture. Ideal for birthday cake. I have made it a few times now and it has been really appreciated by all who tried it I think this cake suits many occasions and can be dressed up The ganache really finishes it off i have also split it and filled with jam and cream

    thanks for sharing.Love
