Ingredients
Semi-Sweet Chocolate
- 6 oz (1 cup | 169g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
White Chocolate
- 6 oz (1 cup | 169g) white chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Add the chocolate chips to a medium sized bowl and set aside.
- Add the heavy whipping cream to a microwave safe bowl or measuring cup and heat for about 1 minute, keeping an eye on it. If it heats up too much, it’ll end up everywhere. Remove from the microwave just before it bubbles up.
- Pour the warm cream over the chocolate chips and allow to sit for 3-5 minutes. You can cover the bowl with some clear wrap to trap in the heat, if you like.
- Gently stir the cream and chocolate together until they come together to a smooth consistency. Try not to whisk too vigorously, which can add air bubbles to the ganache.
- If making white chocolate ganache and you have some lumps remaining, heat in 10 second increments, stirring between, until ganache is smooth.
- Allow ganache to cool for about 10 minutes, give or take, prior to using.
