Chocolate Ganache


My son Spencer thinks I should pay him a dollar every time they say "chocolate ganache" 
on 
Cupcake Wars.

Ha!!

I would be BROKE!!

They use it A LOT!!


I have used it quite a few times myself, this is the basic recipe I use, with a couple of variations.

Chocolate Ganache

8 ounces of semi sweet chocolate
( I have used squares and chips)

1/2 cup of cream

Optionals:
1 teaspoon of instant coffee
or 
1 Tablespoon of rum

Melt chocolate and cream in a pan over low heat, stirring constantly.
When it is melted and glossy looking it's ready.
Pour over the top of dessert and place in the fridge for a bit for it to set.
