Chocolate Corgi Birthday Cake

It’s the hub’s birthday today so I decided to make him a chocolate corgi birthday cake to celebrate then I covered it in chocolate ganache.

Chocolate Corgi Birthday Cake

It was delicious!  And adorable!

I found the corgi cake pan on Amazon, link here. 

I used this recipe here for the cake which filled up the corgi pan just perfectly.

For the ganache, I took 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream and 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips and heated them in the microwave for 1 minute and stirred then did 30 second intervals in the microwave until it was all melted and smooth.  I let it cool just slightly and then dripped it down the sides of the cake and spread it all over the top.

Happy Birthday Bob, I love you more than chocolate!
