White chocolate ganache

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Heavy cream
8 cups White chocolate; chopped
¼ cup Grand marnier; framboise, wide strips of the peel of four oranges, or four sprigs of homegrown lavender (pesticide free)

Directions

OPTIONAL FLAVORING

In a saucepan add any optional flavoring to the heavy cream. Heat the cream until hot but not boiling. Remove the zest or lavender. Remove from the heat. Stir the chocolate into the cream until smooth. Let cool until almost spreadable, but still pourable. This can be kept warm over a double boiler or remelted in the microwave.

Yield: Enough for a 6-inch, 9-inch, 12-inch cake. If covering the cake for 100 people, use 12 cups of chocolate (about 5 pounds) and 3 cups of cream.
