Chocolate ganache is a simple treat made of just two ingredients: non-dairy milk and chocolate. It's perfect for cake drips, a cupcake filling, or for turning your buttercream extra rich and fudgy.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 ounces (113g / approximately 3/4 cup chopped) non-dairy chocolate*
  • 1/2 cup (120mL) non-dairy milk*

Instructions
 

  • If using a chocolate bar, chop into small pieces. Add the chocolate to a heat resistant bowl. Add the milk to a separate microwave-safe bowl or a saucepan.
  • Warm the milk in the microwave or on the stovetop until hot but not boiling. Pour overtop the chocolate. Let sit for about three minutes, then whisk until smooth and creamy.
  • If using for a chocolate drip cake or for drizzling on cupcakes, allow to cool slightly (you want it to be warm but not too hot) before using. Click here for the tutorial.

Notes

  1. Non-dairy chocolate: I recommend using a high quality semi-sweet chocolate bar for the best outcome, but you can also use chocolate chips in a pinch.
  2. Non-dairy milk: Use a thick non-dairy milk for the best outcome. I typically use soy or oat milk.
