    So tempting. Each bite is very consistent, full of mint and dark chocolate flavor. I must say it's a very decadent recipe. Be sure to make the peppermint syrup at least the night before, it really makes a difference in the flavor. I made it the morning of the day that I served the cake but the day after it tasted way better with the cake. LOVE this cake!!

    I made this cake for a birthday recently and it came out great! The cake was moist, chocolaty, and delicious. Not too hard to make either, but all the different components, especially the mint syrup, take some time. I wouldn't recommend skipping it though because it really complements the cake. I used a slightly different ganache recipe because most ganache recipes don't call for an elaborate cooling process, it worked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again!

    I made this cake for my husband's birthday last year and i surprised him at work with it. He is a chef and he works for a famous german chef in Munich Germany. When he and the guys had some of it they where so amazed by it that they actually put it on the menu. I'm gonna make it again for his birthday this year. It's a great recipe.A peppermint chocolate lover's dream. Easy, fast and soooo yummy!!!

    I made this cake for my birthday and my whole family Thought it was super good! It wasent to hard to make either, I didnt use partchment paper though, just sprayed it with non-stick spray and flour, but I couldn't get it out of the pan! but we just cut it and put it on plates and then put the sauce on top. The fudge sauce I could of ate it alone! Great for ice cream! instead of freash mint I used Pepperment extract, The stores were all out of mint cuz of the holidays I think. it tasted just fine!

    My mother and I made this cake the night before a party we were having. It took a while to make, but it wasn't terribly difficult either. It did take quite a while to cool, however, before we were able to put on the ganache topping. It was a great success at our party. Four different people asked me for the recipe. We didn't make the mint syrup, but it was still wonderful. I really recommend it!

    I've made this twice, and each time, people raved. It's worth the effort!

    I thought it would be rich in peppermint flavor and taste delicious but I was wrong. This cake was not yummy.
