Nutella Mud Cake

Nutella AGAIN!!! This is definately a MUST BAKED recipe for readers.

Although it looks the same as my last baked, Chocolate Moist Cake w Chocolate Fudge Topping , the texture is totally different. The previous is soft and moist, but this is simply RICH and FUDGY!

With both Nutella and cocoa powder, you can't doubt the taste of CHOCOLATY!!! can you?

Anyway, i didn't follow the below recipe for the chocolate ganache, since i got no stock of whipping cream in my kitchen. Instead, i use back the last recipe of chocolate fudge topping. It never failed the taste!! Oh, i just love it!
