Hi Ellie! Ganache can be tricky. I have stopped using butter in mine as it can split. I have a detailed tutorial here: https://livforcake.com/chocolate-ganache-recipe/

Let me start with I love your website. I have made so many cakes. My Ganache on this recipe curdled I tried everything to uncurdle. Nothing worked. I used an Irish whiskey that is made with fresh cream. I think that may have done it. Should I lower the butter amount?

Hi Laurie! I’ve experimented with my ganache a lot. If you leave it out here it will make the ganache a bit more firm. It’s possible it will work fine but I haven’t tried it myself so can’t say for sure.

I am wondering why the ganache in this recipe has butter in it. The ganache in your Baileys Espresso cake does not have butter in it. Could I leave the butter out?
Thanks, Laurie

Hi Anna! They are all 2″ tall and the cakes bake right to the top. The batter should make enough to fill each pan half full.

I’ve just made this and the pans were very full and have sort of souffléd over the top. Thanks xx

Hi there! I’m sorry to hear that. If it splits right away that usually means the cream was too hot and/or it didnt emulsify properly. You can usually bring it all back together using an immersion blender.
