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.

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 cup light agave nectar

  • For a glossy ganache, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before using.
  • To make a chocolate ganache frosting, whip the ganache until it is light and fluffy.
  • To make a chocolate ganache sauce, heat the ganache over low heat until it is smooth and pourable.
  • Chocolate ganache can be used to frost cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and other desserts.
