Notes
- If you want the ganache to be thicker, add less cream and vice versa. So, the ratio of cream to chocolate in making the ganache affects the thickness. Also, note that ganache will firm up when it gets colder.
- Make sure to grease your bundt pan with butter well; You don’t want the cake to stick in it.
- Use high-quality chocolate; it is so essential for the best flavour.
- You can replace sour cream with Greek yoghurt, and you will get the same result.
