If you want to impress yet keep it simple, this is the recipe to go with. When sending someone the gift of food, whether for a new baby, a simchah, or for any reason at all, keep it simple, keep it fresh, keep it simply beautiful. Be creative with using eco-friendly packaging that is so on trend now— it’s the perfect way to present your homemade meal that will be appetizing even before they open the box!
1 box chocolate cake mix (I used Duncan Hines Devil’s Food Cake mix)
1 box brownie mix (I used Duncan Hines Chewy Fudge Brownies)
4 eggs
1 cup oil
1 and 1/4 cups water
1 cup heavy whipping cream or 1 (15-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 (12-ounce) bag Haddar Semisweet Chocolate Chips
1/2 teaspoon Gefen Pure Vanilla Extract (if using coconut milk)
pint of strawberries, cleaned
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a nine- or 10-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, mix the cake ingredients together until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 to 55 minutes.
Allow the cake to cool before finishing with the ganache.
In a medium saucepan over a low flame, heat the whipping cream or coconut milk until it just begins to bubble along the sides of the pot.
Turn off the flame and carefully pour the chocolate chips into the heated milk without stirring.
Let stand for five minutes. Then stir the chocolate mixture until glossy and smooth, approximately two minutes.
Add the vanilla extract (if using the coconut milk option) and blend well. Pour over the cooled cake.
Garnish with strawberries dipped in the extra ganache and let set in the refrigerator.
