Chocolate ganache is rainbow sprinkle frosting all grown up. It’s patent leather shoes and sequin sparkles. It’s velvety smooth and seductive. Go ahead. We dare you to whip up an easy batch and not<\/em> dip a finger into the decadent gloss.<\/p>\n

We use chocolate ganache in many of our recipes, from Cocoa Puffs<\/a> to Chocolate Orange Coffee Cake<\/a>.

Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n

1\/2 cup heavy cream
\n1 cup good-quality semisweet chocolate chips<\/p>\n

Pour the heavy cream into a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring the cream to a froth just before it boils. Turn off the heat and add the chocolate chips. Using a rubber spatula, stir constantly until the chocolate has completely melted.\u00a0Set the pan aside and let the ganache cool to the desired consistency. The ganache will thicken as it cools.<\/p>\n
