Method

Baking the Cake

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until thoroughly combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Bake the Cake

    Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool the Cake

    Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, remove from pans and let them cool completely on a wire rack.

Making the Ganache

  1. 7

    Heat the Cream

    In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.

  2. 8

    Add Chocolate

    Remove from heat and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the hot cream. Let sit for 5 minutes.

  3. 9

    Stir to Combine

    Whisk the mixture until smooth and glossy. Allow the ganache to cool slightly before using.

Assembling and Decorating the Cake

  1. 10

    Layer the Cake

    Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of ganache on top.

  2. 11

    Add Second Layer

    Place the second cake layer on top of the ganache and press gently.

  3. 12

    Cover with Ganache

    Pour the remaining ganache over the top and sides of the cake, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

  4. 13

    Decorate

    Garnish the top with fresh raspberries and carefully place the edible gold leaf pieces around for an elegant finish.
