For the Chocolate Ganache:

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions:

  7. Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips to add an extra chocolaty touch.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  10. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the Chocolate Ganache:

  1. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat.
  2. Add the sugar-free chocolate chips to the hot cream and stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the ganache is smooth.
