Chocolate #Recipe! And A #99cent eBook!

I recently made a Boston Cream Pie and the recipe called for the cake to be topped with chocolate ganache. Well! Let me tell you, I have been making chocolate ganache and drizzling it on everything: ice cream, brownies, cakes, cookies, fresh fruit. You name it, I’ve drizzled it. And I think you should, too. Here’s the recipe so you can give ganache a try. The corn syrup offers a glossy finish. Don’t have corn syrup? No problem. Leave it out.

Chocolate Ganache

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate bits

2 tablespoons white corn syrup (optional)

1/2 cup whipping cream

Stove top method: Add chocolate bits and corn syrup to a bowl. Heat cream in a small saucepan until just at the simmering point. Pour hot cream over chocolate and stir until chocolate is fully melted and mixture is smooth. Drizzle over your favorite dessert.

Microwave method: Add all ingredients to a bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Stir. If mixture is not warm enough to melt chocolate, microwave for an additional 15 seconds. Be careful not to scorch the chocolate! Stir until chocolate is fully melted and mixture is smooth. Drizzle over your favorite dessert.

I've made this chocolate ganache using both methods and each method works just fine. Use whichever you prefer.
