Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Make sure the butter and cream cheese are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them mix together smoothly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch round cake pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before baking.
