Chocolate Whiskey Flambe Cake Recipe | How to Make Chocolate Whiskey Flambe Cake
- Mix sugar and milk, add oil, vanilla, vinegar and then all the dry ingredients.
- Bake at 180*C for 30-40 mins. Once it cools, de-mould.
- Melt both the ganache ingredients together in a microwave at 30-second intervals. If you'd like, you can add 50ml whiskey to the ganache as well once you've mixed the hot cream and chocolate.
- Cover the cake with the ganache; you can also layer the cake by slicing it horizontally from the middle and adding ganache. Once done, let it chill till you're ready to serve.
- Pour the whiskey over the cake and light it up. You can also pour the whiskey into a bowl, light that up first and then pour it over the cake. Enjoy!
If you do not want to use whiskey, you can try substitutes like rum, cognac, vodka, brandy, or any other liquor "with above 40% alcohol content."
