-
Heat heavy cream in a sauce pan until it begins to simmer.
-
While the cream is heating, chop up your baking chocolate and place in a small glass bowl.
-
When the cream is heated, pour it over the chocolate. Then, let it set for two minutes without stirring or mixing. Just leave it alone!
-
After it sets for two minutes, beat with a whisk until a rich chocolate ganache forms.
-
Ganache thickens the longer it stands. If using to dip or as a glaze, do it soon after whisking. If you are spreading, you will want to let it thicken a bit.
