Chocolate Ganache

March being Easter month, we decided to throw all diets (and guilty consciences) out the window. This month will feature decadent eats and starting of the month, we have gone back to one of the simple basics which a Thermomix does so quickly and effectively. Philippa Abrahamse, a student from UCT, has her mother's TM31 and made this cake for a friend for her birthday. Decorate with small speckled eggs and a chocolate bunny instead of the Rose.

Ingredients
100g dark chocolate broken into pieces
80g full fat whipping cream

Method

  • Place chocolate into TM bowl and grate for 10 sec/speed 8. Using TM spatula, scrape down sides of the bowl.
  • Add cream and heat 2-3 min/50°C/speed 3.
  • Pour straight away over the cake and leave to cool.

Cook’s notes

  • For a fluffier frosting, allow ganache to cool completely, insert butterfly and whip 1 min/speed 3.
  • Use as chocolate sauce over ice cream.
  • Add chopped nuts for a nutty chocolate sauce.
