CHOCOLATE GINGER TORTE
This is a showstopper at any dinner party and great for the chef because it's so easy to make, but don't forget to add on about two hours to chill the torte. Also, you will want to use a chocolate high in cocoa solids (at least 70 percent) for the best results.

- Stir to combine and press into the bottom of the lined tin.
- Chill in the fridge while you make the middle part of the torte.

- Add the wine and butter.
