12222 Bittersweet Chocolate Ganache 20 mins 20 mins 1 1/3 cups Wed Jul 16 10:17:00 -0700 2008 Mon Sep 22 11:43:55 -0700 2008 Easy French CHOW http://www.chow.com/recipes/12222 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 18:43:55 GMT Cream and chocolate filling Ganache is a cream and chocolate filling that can also be used as icing or made into truffles. This classic pastry filling is nothing more than chocolate and cream, yet its uses are endless. Most commonly it’s warmed up and poured over cake as an icing or chilled down and scooped into balls to form truffles. At room temperature we like it best as a luscious filling for caramel apples.

Game plan: The ganache can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
