Ultimate chocolate cake

"This cake is absolutely gorgeous and definitely the best recipe I have used. I baked this for my friend's 24th birthday and it was a big hit - particularly amongst the boys! I agree that the cake can't really be successfully split into 3 so I used 2 cake tins lined with greaseproof paper on the bottom and greased with a little butter around the edge. The top will crack a little in the tin and may look slightly darker in the centre. I also made chocolate buttercream for the filling and used the ganache for the top. The ganache will be very runny to start with but don't worry it firms up wonderfully especially if put in the fridge for a short while. This is a very dense cake so slice sparingly! "
