5 Minute Chocolate Ganache
Report
5 Minute Chocolate Ganache creates a rich, glossy sauce using just heavy cream and semi-sweet chocolate chips. The hot cream melts the chocolate which is whisked smooth to a thick, pourable consistency. It can be used immediately as a glaze or cooled to pipe as frosting.
Description
This simple chocolate ganache is made by heating heavy whipping cream to a boil and pouring it over semi-sweet chocolate chips. After letting it stand for several minutes, the mixture is whisked until smooth and thick. The result is a silky, dark chocolate mixture that can be poured over cakes, squares, or cupcakes as a glaze.
Once cooled to room temperature, the ganache thickens further, making it easy to pipe decorations or use as a frosting. The method is straightforward with only two ingredients and requires minimal equipment or time.
