Chocolate ganache recipe, learn to make dark chocolate ganache with just 2 ingredients. Chocolate cake topped with chocolate ganache is the perfect double chocolate indulgence and always a winner. If you are a beginner baker; then chocolate ganache will make you popular as it did to me many many moons ago.
Ganache is a French word (do check out wikipedia on this) and is made with cream and chocolate, nothing can go wrong with chocolate and cream and that makes it a popular and quick frosting. You can pour it over cakes, cupcakes, pastries or dip biscuits .... I mean do I have to tell you how to finish off a bowl of chocolate heaven :)
The trick is to heat cream over medium heat until it starts to boil or rather bubbles starts to appear and then switch off the flame. You can either pour it over chocolate chips or chopped chocolate or add chocolate into the same bowl with the cream (less bowl to wash).
Now leave it for 2 mins and then whisk, whisk, whisk.....and luscious chocolate goodness is ready to pour over cakes.
