Tips:
- For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziploc bag with the corner cut off to create the chocolate ganache swirls.
- For a more intense orange flavor, use freshly squeezed orange juice and zest.
- If you don't have orange extract, you can use vanilla extract instead.
- Decorate the cake with chocolate shavings, orange zest, or candied orange peel.
Conclusion:
This chocolate orange truffle cake is a decadent and delicious dessert that is perfect for any special occasion. The moist chocolate cake is filled with a rich chocolate ganache and topped with a creamy orange frosting.
