Method

The orange jelly step comes from the video; its quantities aren't stated.
  1. Blend the wet ingredients and sugar together until smooth.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients, then stir in the liquid mixture.
  3. Pour into an 8-inch round mold, tap a couple of times, and bake at 175°C for 60–70 minutes, covering the top if it colors too quickly.
  4. Let the cake cool, then set a chilled orange jelly layer on top.
  5. Pour the chocolate ganache (chocolate, hot cream, orange extract) over the cake and let it set.
