Time 20m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 3

9 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon dark rum

Steps:

  • Place the chocolate into a medium bowl. Heat the cream in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil, watching very carefully because if it boils for a few seconds, it will boil out of the pot. When the cream has come to a boil, pour over the chopped chocolate, and whisk until smooth. Stir in the rum if desired.
  • Allow the ganache to cool slightly before pouring over a cake. Start at the center of the cake and work outward. For a fluffy frosting or chocolate filling, allow it to cool until thick, then whip with a whisk until light and fluffy.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your ganache glaze. Opt for a chocolate that is at least 70% cacao content for a rich, decadent flavor.
  • Use fresh cream: Fresh cream will give your ganache glaze a smooth, creamy texture. Avoid using ultra-pasteurized or shelf-stable cream, as these can produce a grainy texture.
  • Heat the cream and honey gently: Be careful not to overheat the cream and honey mixture, as this can cause the chocolate to seize. Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until it just begins to simmer.
  • Add the chocolate to the hot cream mixture gradually: This will help to prevent the chocolate from seizing. Add the chocolate in small pieces, stirring constantly until it is completely melted and smooth.
  • Let the ganache glaze cool slightly before using: This will allow the glaze to thicken and become more stable. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the bowl of ganache glaze in an ice bath.

Conclusion:

Chocolate ganache glaze is a versatile and delicious glaze that can be used to enhance the flavor and appearance of a variety of desserts. Whether you are using it to glaze a cake, tart, or pastry, or simply drizzling it over fresh fruit, chocolate ganache glaze is sure to impress. With its rich, decadent flavor and smooth, creamy texture, chocolate ganache glaze is a classic dessert topping that is sure to please everyone.
