I've tried various hot fudge/chocolate sauce recipes over the years and have settled on this simple chocolate ganache recipe which I can whip up in about three minutes with the aid of my microwave and careful/patient stirring.
Three minute Chocolate Ganache
about 3/4 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (use any kind you like)
1/2 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
Microwave safe bowl (I use a 6 oz ramekin - holds about 3/4 cup)
I start with the chocolate chips in the bowl:
Then add in the cream just to about the height of the chocolate chips:
Then put in your microwave for 1 minute - it will look like this when it comes out:
Let that sit about a minute to let the hot cream do it's magic on the chocolate chips, then begin stirring - slowly. It will seem like it will never emulsify together but trust me, it will.
After about 30 seconds it will look like this:
Almost there... |
Nope not for me...have about five weeks to go before I can enjoy this treat. Instead the rest of the house enjoyed this:
What's nice about the Chocolate Ganache is that whatever is left can go in the fridge and can be heated up for another day.
