Ingredients
Ganache Ingredients
- 600 g white chocolate (chunks or chips)
- 200 ml double cream or heavy cream
Instructions
- Prepare Chocolate: Place white chocolate chunks or chips into a large mixing bowl.
- Add Cream: Pour in the double cream or heavy cream over the chocolate.
- Heat Mixture: Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds, then stir. Repeat heating and stirring in 30-second intervals until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Cool Ganache: Allow the mixture to cool until just warm, then cover the surface directly with cling film to prevent air bubbles from forming.
- Chill: Refrigerate the ganache for 2 hours, or alternatively leave it to cool at room temperature for 5-6 hours until set but not hard.
- Whip Ganache: Using a whisk or electric mixer, whip the chilled ganache for about 2 minutes until it becomes light, fluffy, and spreadable.
- Decorate: Use the whipped ganache to frost cakes or as a filling or topping for your favorite desserts.
Notes
- Ensure the cling film touches the ganache surface to avoid a skin forming.
- Use high-quality white chocolate for best flavor and texture.
- Heavy cream provides a richer ganache, but double cream works well too.
- If your ganache is too soft after chilling, refrigerate a bit longer before whipping.
- This ganache works perfectly for piping decorations or as a creamy spread.
