Ingredients of Swiss Chalet Chocolate Fudge Cake:

1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
1 cup (200g) brown sugar, packed
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup (240ml) whole milk
2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
1 cup (100g) unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (175g) semisweet chocolate, chopped (or chocolate chips)
For the Chocolate Ganache:
- 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
- 8 ounces (225g) semisweet chocolate, finely chopped

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line a 9-inch (23cm) round cake pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry mixture. Mix until just combined.
Fold in the chopped semisweet chocolate.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
Bake for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chocolate Ganache:

In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer.
Remove from heat and add the finely chopped semisweet chocolate. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth.
Allow the ganache to cool slightly before pouring it over the cooled cake.

Servings of Swiss Chalet Chocolate Fudge Cake:

Slice the Swiss Chalet Chocolate Fudge Cake and serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Enjoy every decadent bite!

Notes:

The cake’s texture is fudgy and moist, similar to a brownie, but with a more delicate crumb.
The ganache adds an extra layer of indulgence. If you’re feeling adventurous, sprinkle some crushed nuts or chocolate shavings on top.
