One Bowl Chocolate Fudge Cake

Recipe by The Scran Line

A super‑moist, fluffy chocolate fudge cake made in a single bowl, topped with a silky chocolate ganache. The secret is a splash of boiling water (or coffee) that creates extra lift and intensifies the chocolate flavor. Easy to bake, simple to frost, and perfect for any celebration.
