Ganache is in freezer now for the filling of my pumpkin smores cupcakes. – Morgan @ [email protected]
Hi, will this method have a consistency where I will be able to whip it up more and say pipped it into roses?
@AnonymousThe ganache wont be too stiff. But try it, i think they will hold.
Very informative. Love it! Going to try. Thanks!
Thanks this turned out amazing!!!
Loved it ,and was super simple to make.
I have just made this, as a topping for some red velvet cupcakes… Delicious!! Thank you for sharing 🙂
I am having a girls party tonight and wanted to make some delicious chocolate turtle cupcakes with caramel drizzle but don't have any cream (and really don't want to run out and get some either). I will be trying this recipe for sure in a few hours! Hope the girls love them! Xoxo
Will it be too much if I used milk chocolate chips?
@A YuenNo you can use any chips as you wish
can i use regular chocolate instead of chocolate chips?
@AnonymousYES U CAN
Hey I have 2-3 bars of lindt (white) toblerone and diary milk can I mix together instead of ur choco chip
And can I use any yogurt for cream cheese instead of ur Hung yogurt?
@krishnaveni Balaguruyes u can
Looks like you have burnt the chocolate as its very lumpy . good for a home style cake
This is very helpful, and the pictures looks chocolatey and delicious!
I have a question though, and it is, how much ganache does this recipe make?
@AnonymousThis makes a little more than a cup of frosting
Hi, I have lots of chocolate spread at home, would I be able to turn it in to a ganache by adding milk and butter? Thanks.

@ziya nikeAdd very little hot milk to it and mix it up. It will get creamy and spreadable. Butter is not necessary.
Hey!
I have used the exact measurement and done the exact procedure.. but it's not stiff to spread.. what should be the reason?
@sagarikaMay be u must have added little more milk, add some more chocolate, it should be good
That looks really tasty.
Everyone loves chocolate.
