Question:
Where's the recipe for the chocolate birthday cake you made yesterday?
— Lisa Granata
Answer:
The birthday cake that I made yesterday, that is my chocolate cake to live for the recipe is in my cookbook. It's in the course or variation and you will find it on my website. What I did differently yesterday was I kind of combined two recipes. I made a double layer of the chocolate cake, which is, that's this, you know, it's two layers in two pans. And I glazed each layer after they were chilled with some ganache to kind of waterproof them. And then I filled and frosted the cake with the chocolate pudding that is also in my cookbook, which is a basic chocolate pudding. It's um, corn starch and a good, I use dutch processed cocoa powder. I use organic cane sugar, vegan cane sugar, but you can do it with coconut sugar as well. And I use oat milk oatley. And there you have it.
