Chocolate fudge cake with whipped chocolate ganache

 My sister told me that she doesn't like chocolate cake, because it's dry and dense, I was shocked, because in my experience, my chocolate cake is not always dry and dense.

 So I told her that I will make chocolate cake for her, and I'm sure that she will love it. Actually it depends on the recipe, and how it kept. Cake made with butter will firm and dry in the refrigerator, or cool weather, because the butter will firm up as the weather cool. So, I decided to make her a cake and serve her on the day it made ^^, and hope she will love it.
I make Chocolate fudge cake with whipped chocolate ganach, rich chocolate cake with delicious frosting, the texture of the cake is soft and moist, actually you can add more moistness by sprinkle with simple syrup if you like (add some spirit into the syrup will be great).
I use only 60% chocolate for this ganache because my nephew doesn't like bitterness from high percentage chocolate, and I think the taste is very good too, ^^. For the filling, if you want you can use the ganache for the filling too, by making 1 and a half recipe of the ganache. 
The result that I got from my sister is "Delicious", and now she believed me that chocolate cake is delicious too.
