This is a quick (not from scratch) Torte recipe:
~ For the Torte you will need ~ 1 Box of Dark Chocolate Brownie mix – 8″ size (Ghirardelli preferred) and Oil, Eggs and Water as called for on the box. Prepare 8″ round cake pan with cooking spray. Follow baking directions for fudge-like brownies and bake. When done, remove and let cool for 10 minutes then remove brownie from pan to your serving dish.
~ For the Ganache you will need ~ 1 Bar (4 oz) Dark Chocolate Baking Bar, broken into small pieces (60% cacao) and 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream. Place chocolate in small bowl and microwave until smooth. Microwave cream uncovered on high until boiling. Pour over chocolate and stir until creamy smooth. Cool for 10 minutes, the ganache will thicken. Pour evenly over torte. Allow torte to cool completely (or you will need a spoon!) ~ Chef ~
