This recipe is perfect for a small gathering, because there are no leftovers to be tempted by. The cake is so rich and delicious that a little slice goes a long way, so you still could feed 8 with it at a small dinner party. I will definitely make again, but I will halve the ganache topping next time. I saved mine for another use, because there is just too much.
Eexcellent moist cake. Pretty much the same as my original chocolate cake so family loved it.
