Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F and set the oven rack to the middle position.
- Grease a 10-inch tube pan with butter or shortening and sprinkle it with cocoa. Or spray the pan with nonstick spray (the type with flour included).
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate morsels at MEDIUM heat for 30 seconds. Stir the chocolate and continue microwaving and stirring at 15-second intervals until melted. Stir until creamy and smooth.
- In a medium bowl, sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and brown sugar together at medium speed until fluffy and completely incorporated, about 5 minutes.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating just until incorporated after each addition.
- Add the melted chocolate and mix just until well blended.
- On low speed, slowly add the flour mixture and the sour cream alternately to the chocolate mixture. After each addition, mix the ingredients just until incorporated. Begin and end with the flour mixture. (The additions are added as follows: ⅓ of the flour mixture, ½ of the sour cream, ⅓ of the flour mixture, ½ of the sour cream, ⅓ of the flour mixture.)
- Very gradually add the hot water and beat on LOW just until blended.
- Add vanilla and stir.
- Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared tube pan.
- Bake at 350°F for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Transfer the cake to a wire rack and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Lift the cake by the center tube and return to the wire rack.
- While the cake cools, make the ganache. In a large microwave-safe bowl, heat the cream on medium heat until a few bubbles are visible (just beginning to boil).
- Add the chocolate morsels, stirring every 15 seconds or until the chocolate melts.
- Add the butter and stir until fully incorporated.
- Pour the ganache (SEE NOTE) over the cake and sprinkle with flaked sea salt.

CHOCOLATE GANACHE CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan, then line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time. Mix in the chocolate syrup and vanilla. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Don't overbeat, or the cake will be tough.
- Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until just set in the middle. Don't overbake! Let cool thoroughly in the pan.
- For the ganache, cook the heavy cream, chocolate chips, and instant coffee in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until smooth and warm, stirring occasionally.
- Place the cake upside down on a wire rack and pour the glaze evenly over the top, making sure to cover the entire cake and sides. You can tilt the rack to smooth the glaze. Decorate with candied violets, if desired, or gently crumble the gold leaf and place it on the center of the cake. Do not refrigerate.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 8-inch round cake pans; dust with cocoa, tapping out excess. Line bottom of each pan with a round of parchment paper; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition; beat in chocolate and vanilla. With mixer on low, alternately add flour mixture in three parts and buttermilk in two, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
- Divide batter between prepared pans; smooth tops. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in pans 15 minutes; run a knife around edge of each pan, and invert cakes onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Set a rimmed baking sheet upside down on a work surface. Place one cake on sheet, and spread top with 1/3 of ganache. Place second cake on top, and spread remaining ganache over top and sides of cake. Using two wide metal spatulas, carefully transfer frosted cake to a serving platter.

CHOCOLATE FANTASY CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE GANACHE ICING
The first time I ever saw Emeril Lagasse was on Good Morning America. My cable TV company did not have the Food Network (I have DirecTV now to solve that problem, and to get Animal Planet as well!) The recipe he made on GMA that really impressed me and actually pushed me into my cooking craze was this flourless, rich Chocolate Fantasy Cake -- BAM and all. I have posted the cake and chocolate ganache icing as one recipe here. It is just incredible, and I hope you enjoy it!

REAL CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH GANACHE
I saw this recipe being made on Good Food Live one day and it looked delicious. I now use this cake in my baking rotation and there is never a crumb left. Try and use the best quality chocolate you can-it does make a difference. For a variation on the ganache, try adding some grated orange zest or chopped mint or even some finely chopped nuts.
