VEGAN CHOCOLATE-GANACHE FROSTING
Swapping coconut milk in for cream in a standard chocolate-ganache recipe yields a rich dairy-free topping. Because of the high ratio of coconut milk to chocolate, the frosting will take longer to thicken, but the decadent taste and airy texture are well worth the wait. Pair it with our Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes.
