Method

1
Sieve the first three ingredients into a bowl (or processor bowl), then add the margarine, caster sugar, beaten eggs, and milk, and beat until combined.
Tip into two well-greased 8” round baking tins, and bake at 160 degrees C for about 50 minutes.
Test with a skewer – when it comes out of the cake clean, the cake is done.
For the ganache filling
Pour 4floz double cream into a saucepan, and add 4oz of broken dark or milk chocolate. Allow to melt, whisk to blend, and then refrigerate until it reaches spreading consistency. I have refridgerated this and then whisked it up to make it lighter and it's yummy :)Spread on one layer and put the best on top and sift cocoa powder over.
