1 box chocolate fudge cake mix
1 tub ready-to-spread chocolate frosting
Bake cake as directed on box using two round pans. Cool completely.
Fill layers and frost sides of cake with frosting. Carefully pour ganache onto top center of cake, spread to edge, allowing some to drizzled down side. Garnish top center with chopped pecans or walnuts. Refrigerate until chocolate is set. Store covered in refrigerator. Serves 12 to 16.
Chocolate Ganache
1/3 cup whipping cream
3 ounces semisweet baking chocolate (chocolate chips)
Heat whipping cream over low heat until hot but not boiling. Remove and stir in chocolate until melted. Let stand a few minutes, it will be ready to use when it mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon. It will become firmer, the longer it cools. Please note, if you like chocolate I would double the recipe using 2/3 whipping cream and 6 ounces of chocolate. That way you have enough for your cake and enough to eat while you wait for your cake to come out of the refrigerator. Enjoy!
