directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Melt 2 ounces of the chocolate over low heat in a small saucepan, stirring constantly. Scrape the chocolate into a medium bowl and let cool slightly. Whisk in the oil and sugar until smooth, then whisk in the egg.
- In a small bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Add half to the chocolate mixture along with 1/2 cup coffee and 1/2 cup buttermilk. Whisk until smooth. Add remaining dry ingredients, coffee and buttermilk; whisk until smooth.
- Pour into a 12-cup bundt pan that has been sprayed with vegetable oil spray. Bake in the lower third of the oven for about 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Let cake cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then turn it out and let cool completely.
- GANACHE GLAZE. Bring the cream to a boil in a small saucepan. In a heatproof bowl, combine the remaining 3 ounces of chocolate with the corn syrup and butter. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let stand until melted. Whisk until smooth. Let the ganache cool until thick but still pourable.
- Pour ganache over the cooled cake. Let the cake stand until the glaze is set before serving (about 30 minutes).

<p>Aloha! I just recently started spending more time in the kitchen and am learning that cooking and baking can be fun as well as challenging. My favorite cookbook resources are my 'gourmet' sister and the very patient and generous Ohana of Zaar. Mahalo nui loa! <br /><br />My rating system: The first time I try a recipe, I follow the instructions as given; if I do a little tweaking, I keep that in mind when rating. It's not right to rate lower because of something I did or didn't do. <br />***** ... Excellent! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />**** ... Loved It! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />No stars ... May be an excellent recipe but I was unable to get it to work for me. May or may not try again later. We don't all have the same taste preferences. I've found recipes with lots of five stars that just didn't work for me and some with less that I thought were great. <br />Thank you All for sharing!</p>
