Steps:
- Combine chocolate and corn syrup in a large heatproof bowl. Bring cream just to a simmer over medium-high heat; pour over chocolate mixture. Let stand, without stirring, until chocolate begins to melt.
- Beginning near the center and working outward, whisk melted chocolate into cream until mixture is combined and smooth. Continue to whisk until frosting just barely begins to hold its shape and is slightly lighter in color. Use immediately (frosting will continue to thicken after whisking).
DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE GANACHE
Half of the ganache is used for the glaze, which should be cool to the touch but pourable. If necessary, warm it over a pan of simmering water.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 9-by-2-inch round cake pans; line bottoms with parchment paper. Butter parchment; dust with cocoa powder, tapping out excess. In a medium bowl, whisk cocoa with hot water until smooth. Whisk in sour cream; let cool. Into a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating to combine after each; scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in vanilla. With mixer on low speed, add flour mixture in two parts, alternating with cocoa mixture and beginning and ending with flour; beat until combined.
- Divide batter between prepared pans; smooth with an offset spatula. Bake until a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack to cool 15 minutes. Invert cakes onto rack; peel off parchment. Turn cakes over; let cool completely, topside up. Transfer half of Chocolate Ganache (3 1/2 cups) to clean bowl of an electric mixer; set aside remaining. Let cool completely, stirring frequently, about 40 minutes. Attach bowl to mixer fitted with whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until ganache holds soft peaks, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Using a serrated knife, trim tops of cake layers to make level. Transfer one of the layers to a cake turntable or platter, and spread top with 1 1/2 cups whipped ganache. Top with remaining layer, cut side down, and spread remaining whipped ganache in a thin layer over entire cake, covering completely. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
- Transfer cake to a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Pour reserved ganache over top, letting it run down the sides. If necessary, use a large offset spatula to spread from the center toward the edges, so that the cake is evenly and completely covered. Refrigerate until ganache has just begun to set, about 30 minutes. Transfer cake to a serving plate. Serve immediately, or refrigerate, covered with a cake dome, for up to 2 days.

Steps:
- Place the chopped chocolate into the bowl of a food processor.
- Heat the heavy cream in a quart-sized, microwavable container and microwave for 3 to 4 minutes on high, or until it just begins to simmer; be careful not to allow cream to boil over. Pour the cream over the chocolate and let stand for 2 minutes. Process by pulsing several times until chocolate mixture is smooth. Use as is for glazing. If you wish to make a lighter frosting, allow it to come to room temperature, approximately 2 hours. Once at room temperature, place in the bowl of a stand mixer and whisk on high for 2 to 3 minutes.

- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the sugar, egg yolks, and salt and beat on medium speed to mix. The mixture will be very thick and grainy.
- Put 1 in [2.5 cm] of water in the bottom of a double boiler or a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Place the bowl with the yolk mixture over the simmering water and stir the mixture with a rubber spatula until the sugar is completely melted. Feel the mixture between your fingers to check for graininess. Once all the sugar has melted and the mixture is smooth, the syrup is hot enough to be safe to consume (see note).
- Return the bowl to the stand mixer fitted with a clean whisk attachment and beat on medium-high speed until the egg foam is light, fluffy, and glossy and the bowl feel just about room temperature, 6 to 8 minutes (see note for visual cues below). If the egg foam isn't cooled sufficiently, the butter will melt when you add it.
- Once the egg foam is whipped and cooled, turn the mixture speed to medium, add the butter 2 tablespoons at a time, and beat until incorporated. Turn the speed to low, add the vanilla, and mix until incorporated.

- At 8 hours before serving and preferably the day before: Put the chopped chocolate or chocolate chips in a medium bowl with a large pinch of kosher salt. Bring the cream to a simmer, almost boiling, in a saucepan over medium-high heat (don't walk away from the stove while doing this as your cream will quickly boil over).
- Pour the hot cream directly over the chocolate and let it sit without stirring for 5 minutes. This will melt the chocolate and allow the cream to cool slightly making and emulsion easier. Put a whisk in the center of the chocolate cream mixture and begin whisking in a small, tight circular motion until fully combined.
- Add the 2 TBSP butter and stir until it is fully incorporated. Put a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ganache and set aside at room temperature for at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Butter two 8x2-inch round cake pans and grease and flour the pans, tapping out any excess flour. Set aside.
