Ingredients
- 9 ounces bittersweet chocolate bar about 62%, finely chopped
- ¾ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Place chopped chocolate in a large heat safe bowl.
- Add cream to a heavy bottomed small saucepan and heat to just a simmer. Do not boil.
- Pour simmering cream over the chopped chocolate, then cover with a plate or plastic wrap and let sit for 5 minutes.
- Uncover the chocolate and cream mixture and begin whisking. At first the mixture will appear broken, keep whisking, working from the middle out, until the ganache comes together.
- Allow the ganache to cool for 10 minutes and then you can drizzle on top of cupcakes or cakes as a glaze.
- For a thicker frosting-like consistency or to use as a chocolate filling, allow it to cool completely in the fridge for about one hour and then whip it with a handheld mixer until light and fluffy. You can then spread it on cake as frosting or pipe it on top.

Notes
- The full ganache recipe makes about 2 1/4 cups and the servings assumes this is for 8 servings.
