Dark Chocolate Ganache

Dark chocolate ganache is a smooth, decadent mixture made by heating heavy cream and pouring it over chopped dark chocolate. When combined, the heat melts the chocolate, creating a rich, glossy, and velvety substance. It can be used as a filling, frosting, or glaze for desserts like cakes, tarts, and truffles. The proportions of cream to chocolate determine its consistency—more cream results in a pourable glaze, while less creates a thick frosting or filling. Ganache is appreciated for its luxurious texture and deep chocolate flavor, making it a versatile component in many confections.
