Chocolate Ganache ( Milk Chocolate)

Ganache is one of my favourite , never enough and always a have some in the fridge, whenever I need to whip something quick, a cake, dessert, pastry...you name it, and ganache comes in handy.


 Just like so many other delicous and rich things that am crazy about...Ganache is also a French origin which simply refers to luscious glaze made from cream and chocolate and of coz anything chocolate is DELICIOUS!
You can also add flavoring such as vanilla or cinnamon if you wish.

The greatest thing about the ganache is its very simple to make and has only 2 ingredients!!! and you make wonders with it because its so very versatile.

As we go along , I will show you so many different recipes that uses ganache from a glaze, to a filling, to frosting to mousse and the list goes on and on....

Ganache may vary depending on the ratio of chocolate to cream and also the type of chocolate it all depends on what you are looking for .  You can also make white, or dark chocolate ganache but the ratio is different. 

White Chocolate 3:1
Milk Chocolate 2:1
Dark chocolate 1:1

Theres so much to write about ganache but I have decided to make it very short and simple.




Ingredients: 

1 part Heavy Whipping Cream
1 part Chocolate 
Butter & Corn syrup (optional)

Method:

Heat the heavy whipping cream to a boil in a mocrowave or stove top

Pour it in the chocolate, cover it for few mins 4/5 mins

Stir and mix to ensure the all  chocolate is melted, whip it and add the butter and corn syrup if you are looking for the glossy and shinny affect. Whip it well , cover it and keep it in the fridge.
