Sour Cream Ganache Recipes

SOUR CREAM GANACHE

Steps:

• Place the chocolate chips into a glass or metal bowl, and set over the top of a pan of barely simmering water. Stir occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and transfer the chocolate to a medium bowl.
• Add the sour cream and vanilla; beat with an electric mixture until smooth and creamy. If you let it cool down too much it will set up, so frost your cake while it is still liquid, or reheat before using.

SOUR CREAM GANACHE FROSTING

Steps:

• Melt chocolate as directed on package.
• Mix with remaining ingredients until well blended.

INDULGENT SOUR CREAM GANACHE

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate over a double boiler (over hot water). You could also use the microwave - do take the container out every 10 seconds and stir, until it has melted.
• Remove the chocolate from the heat, and while it is still warm add the sour cream.
• Stir gently yet swiftly with a rubber/silicone spatula until the mixture is uniform in colour.
• If the bowl is still warm, transfer it to another bowl.
• Serving: You can use it immediately. If you wish to use it later, store it in an airtight container and when cool keep it in the fridge. When you're ready to use it, heat in the microwave for a few seconds, and stir in gently, or place the bowl in a warm water bath.
