At Easter there is always a copious supply of delicious chocolate for all ages. However, there’s often some left over. And there’s no better way to use it up than to make a delicious and easy ganache, which will enhance even the fluffiest of cakes. This cake contains buttermilk, which is what makes it so fluffy. It’s delicious fresh out of the oven, however it’s also irresistible the next day once it has had time to rest. A chocolate cloud.
