Serving Size / Yield

1 1/4

Ingredients

2/3 C. heavy whipping cream
6 oz. semisweet baking chocolate, chopped

Directions

In 1-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream over low heat until hot but not boiling; remove from heat.

Stir in chocolate until melted. Let stand about 5 minutes. Ganache is ready to use when it mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon. It will become firmer the longer it cools.

Pour ganache carefully onto top center of cake and spread with a large spatula.
