I’ve been craving this, probably since I hadn’t made it for almost a year. It’s so good, and so easy. Both Larry and Jay loved it.
This was the third time I’ve made this chocolate cake, and it was an utter failure. Okay, not utter, because we ended up eating it anyway, without the ganache or glaze. For details, see Kitchen F-Ups.

• White Bean and Sausage Ragout with Tomatoes, Kale and Zucchini (Cooking Light, January 2005)
• Sourdough bread with Sauteed Garlic Butter (Fine Cooking #43, March 2001, p. 49)
• Chocolate-Amaretto Heart

Wine: Rosenblum 2000 Cullinane Vineyard Zinfandel (Sonoma County, California). So good, we drank the whole bottle. Especially good with the chocolate cake.
