Chocolate cake, in its many guises, must be one of the most-loved foods on the planet. I make this recipe often at home – it’s a moist cake filled with decadent ganache.

Serve it as is, or make it a showstopper and switch up the filling (perhaps with nuts, or cherries to cut the richness) and finish with a few edible flowers.
