Chocolate Ganache Recipe

heavy cream

butter

chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet, or dark)

coffee

kosher salt

Add heavy cream and butter to a small saucepan and heat on low heat until the butter has melted and the cream is warmed throughout.

Add chocolate chips to a large glass or nonreactive bowl. Pour the warmed cream and butter mixture over the chocolate chips. Add in the brewed coffee and a pinch of salt. Allow to stand for about 3-5 minutes to soften the chocolate chips completely.

Stir briskly to combine and until smooth.

Allow to cool slightly. Ganache will easily pour over cake or other item.

Ganache Glaze:

Once cooled, ganache filling can be spread between layers of cakes, piped as filling into pastries, or sandwiched between cookies, etc.

Ganache Filling:

Once cooled, use an electric mixer or a wire whisk, whip ganache to incorporate air and increase the volume of the ganache. Spread on cakes or other pastries as you would frosting.

Ganache Frosting:

Chocolate Glaze

dark chocolate (about 54 to 55% cocoa chopped)

heavy cream (or whipping cream)

Place the chocolate into a medium-sized, heatproof bowl.

In a small saucepan, heat the cream until it just begins to simmer, and then pour it over the chocolate.

Let it sit a minute or two to allow the chocolate to soften. Then gently stir with a whisk until the chocolate has fully melted and the mixture is smooth.

Then cover and set aside until it is set enough to drizzle over the cake, but isn't too runny.
