A cake that tastes better every day

Cream the butter, eggs, and sugar until fluffy. Mix the remaining dough ingredients well and fold into the mixture with a slotted spoon. Pour into a springform pan lined with baking paper. Bake at approximately 160°C for about 45 minutes (test with a skewer). Once cooled, cut the base in half. Perfume the halves with Grand Marnier or rum. Spread with quince jelly and assemble the bases. For the ganache, bring the cream to a boil. Cut the chocolate coating into small pieces and melt it. Once cooled, cream the chocolate cream until fluffy and spread it over the cake. If the ganache becomes too solid, it can be reheated slightly. Decorate as desired. The cake should rest for at least a day.
