Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

Use a good quality dark chocolate. This recipe is something I found in a cupcake book that makes yummy ganache without boiling cream and spending ages stirring in chocolate until it melts. As it stands the mix will thicken and harden, which makes it look gorgeous piped onto cakes. Make sure you use good quality chocolate, cooking chocolate goes hard and doesn't mix in properly.
