9/99: Chocolate Tomato Cake with Mystery Ganache


The Chocolate Tomato Cake has become one of my favorite cakes in the book because it is so incredibly easy to make, easy to impress, and because it creates excellent dinner conversation as everyone tries to guess the mystery ingredient.

Tonight was one of my good friend's birthdays so I brought this cake along to the party and the group spent minimum  of15-20 minutes trying to figure out what was in it.

Rum? Vodka? Citrus flavored liquor? Mayonnaise? Mustard? Cumin? Tarragon? Roasted Red Peppers? Paprika? Cream Cheese? It drove them crazy.
