Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams White chocolate (finely chopped)
- 100 ml Heavy cream
- 10 grams Unsalted butter (optional, for extra shine)
Instructions
Place the finely chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Ensure the chocolate is evenly chopped to promote even melting.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil to prevent scorching.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped white chocolate. Let it sit undisturbed for about 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.
Using a spatula or whisk, slowly stir the mixture in small circles, starting from the center and gradually working outward, until the chocolate is fully melted and the ganache is smooth.
If using butter for extra shine and creaminess, add it now and whisk until completely incorporated.
Once mixed, let the ganache cool to your desired consistency. Use it immediately as a glaze, or let it thicken at room temperature or in the fridge for piping or filling desserts.
Store any leftover ganache in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Before using, gently warm it to soften.
