Chocolate Truffle Cake image

This is a very rich moist chocolate cake. I have made it many times. It is the last birthday cake my father requested before he passed away in 1999. I think it is a Bakers Chocolate recipe

I'm not a big fan of chocolate cake, but this one was really good. The chocolate ganache filling was especially delicious.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The chocolate ganache filling was the best part.
