Rich Dark Chocolate Cake image

This is the most easy, moist and delicious chocolate cake! It is nice split and filled with cherries or jam and whipped cream and iced with ganache or chocolate icing. It does require a good chill for flavours to develop. Everyone raves about this and is always a favourite when I take it anywhere.
