One more chocolate cake

Making a chocolate mud cake now:
Ingredients
250g butter, chopped
200g dark chocolate, chopped
2 cups caster sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup self-raising flour, sifted
1 1/2 cups plain flour, sifted
1/4 cup cocoa powder, sifted
1/4 cup water
----
Also Chocolate Ganache :
2/3rd cup condensed milk
200 Gms chocolate

-------------------
Not sure how it will turn out since 70% chocolate was recommended, but when i tasted the final batter before putting in oven it tasted bitter. Will know in about 30 Mins
---------------------

Success.. didn't have the cake yesterday, rather just finished cooling it and put on the icing etc. It was too late about 11:30 pm and Naqiyah was already sleepy.
However we cut the cake today and its awesome! Pure delight. Not too sweet, not too bitter, chewy, just the right creamyness from the iceing.. its pure evil.. Only downside is makes it feel like a sin to have such pure chuncks of Cocoa and Chocolate going into the tummy!!! All care about paunches has to be forgotten when having this one !

Satisfied.. Highly Satisfied :)
