How To Make Chocolate Ganache
You only need chocolate, heavy whipping cream, a microwave, and 5 minutes to make this simple ganache recipe!
Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
INSTRUCTIONS
Chop the chocolate and add it to a large heatproof bowl. Set aside.
Pour the heavy whipping cream into a microwave safe bowl (I like to use a glass measuring cup) and heat in the microwave for about 45 seconds-1 minute. Make sure to keep an eye on it so it doesn't bubble over in the microwave.
Pour the warm heavy whipping cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Start whisking slowly in the middle of the bowl, and continue whisking in one direction until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Allow to cool for about 10-15 minutes before using on a dessert. If you want to use this as more of a "frosting" allow to cool completely first.
