Mili's Quick One-Cup Chocolate Ganache
This is a super quick way to make a cup of ganache - just enough for drizzling over a dessert. I'm sharing the classic way and the vegan way to make this topping. Any leftover ganache can be placed into a sealed container and refrigerated for up to a month. Cold ganache will harden. It can be slowly reheated to bring it back to the flow you want.
Ingredients
Classic Chocolate Ganache
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup semi sweet choclate chips
Vegan Chocolate Ganache
- 1 cup all fat vegan milk - soy, coconut, etc.
- 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Pour one cup of heavy whipping cream (or vegan milk) into a glass container. Put into the microwave for 2 minutes. Pour the half-cup of chocolate chips into the hot cream.
- Allow the mixture to sit for 30 seconds to one minute.
- Stir with a spoon. You have one cup of choclate ganache, ready for the world. Spoon it onto your dessert.
- When using vegan milk, add half of the chocolate until mostly melted and then add the other half cup until totally combined. These ingredients will allow a few more minutes before the chocolate has melted and your ganache is ready.
- If you're looking to drizzle, take a gallon sized storage bag, fill one corner and then cut a small hole at that corner. The smaller the hole, the smaller the drizzle. The large the hole, will make for a dollop effect.
