I used semi sweet chocolate chips to make this and it was a bit bitter for me, so i added some honey to it to make it little sweeter. And also the addition of honey gave a nice shine to the ganache..You can use dark, milk or white chocolate for this as well..
Hope you will try this out and let me know how it turns out for you…
Preparation Time: 15 mins
Cooking Time : 5 mins

Hi.. made tis how long will it stay good wen stored in fridge…
This stay good in a air tight container in fridge for 3 to 4 days
Hie Aarthi, is it necessary to use honey? How does honey help?
Adding honey will give a nice gloss to the ganache
Hi Arthi,where do we get dark chocolate bars at Nagercoil? Wats the brand name? Plz do reply.
You can get it online in amazon. Or look in arumugam stores near municipality office
Thanks for the recipe.
Can I use regular full fat milk cream avilable at home and dairy milk chocolate??
ganache needs cream and compound chocolate or dark chocolate bar. Dairy milk wont work.
