In a bowl, mix flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add softened butter, eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.

Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.

Pour the ganache over the set custard layer and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the ganache is set.
