I'm not a big fan of chocolate cake, but this one is an exception. It's light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness.

I'm not a fan of rosemary, so I omitted it from the ganache. The cake was still delicious.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cake didn't turn out as expected. It was too dense and not very flavorful.
