Have made this for 2 chocolate birthday cakes, and left over makes fabulous truffles. Roll truffles in Cacao and chilli or chopped crystalised ginger or nuts or coconut for lots of flavour options. Delicious.

This makes a beautiful ganache that is very easy to do. Quite a decent amount too. Once cooled in the fridge it can be easily spread or piped. Yum yum

So good; so easy. I'm quite impatient, so I just poured it over the cake while still hot and spread it out. Perfect!

Place both chocolate and cream in a saucepan and stir over medium heat until chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Cool then refrigerate for 30 - 40 minutes until the mixture is a thick spreading consistency.
