Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 4 ounces Unsweetened chocolate
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Instructions
Chop the unsweetened chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not allow it to boil.
Remove the cream from the heat and pour it over the chopped chocolate.
Let the mixture sit for 1 minute to allow the chocolate to soften.
Gently stir the chocolate and cream together until smooth and fully combined.
Add the erythritol sweetener and continue stirring until it is dissolved.
Stir in the vanilla extract and butter, mixing until the butter is melted and the ganache is shiny and smooth.
Let the ganache cool slightly before using it as a topping or let it cool to room temperature to thicken, if desired.
Store any leftover ganache in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
