Chocolate Ganache

This sumptuous ganache is made with just two simple ingredients. It sets beautifully and can be used in a variety of applications, from glazes to truffles.

Chocolate Ganache ### Ingredients:

8 ounces (226 grams) semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream

Instructions:

Begin by placing the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Make sure the bowl is large enough to accommodate the mixture after the cream has been added.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Be careful not to let it boil.
Once the cream is heated, pour it over the chopped chocolate. Allow it to sit for a minute to soften the chocolate.
Using a whisk or spatula, gently stir the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted and the ganache is smooth and glossy.
If you desire a thicker ganache, allow it to cool for a few minutes to reach your desired consistency.
You can use the ganache immediately while it is warm for drizzling over desserts or let it cool to room temperature to use as a filling or frosting.

Enjoy the deep, rich flavors of this Chocolate Ganache as you explore its endless possibilities. Whether used as a luxurious frosting for cakes, an elegant dessert sauce, or a delightful ganache for truffles, this recipe is sure to impress.
