Chocolate Ganache Recipe

the recipe for the ganache is simple... it is 1 pint of heavy whipping cream and a little more than a bag of chocolate chips. When i looked up recipe's online they vary quite a bit.. some adding butter some adding honey.. some a pinch of salt... but this one is simple. Just heat up the whipping cream on the stove on LOW heat until it barely boils.. just barely. Then you pour it over the chocolate chips that are in a metal bowl and stir until it looks all chocolatey and lovely. Some recipes say you need to use the chocolate that is like 70 percent cacao ... but i just used semi sweet chips. try it it's yummy!! You can also just make a half batch if you prefer it makes quite a bit! Once it is totally cool you can also spread it like frosting!
