Chocolate Ganache
"When I'm alone in my hotel room in some foreign place, I feel very lonely. Then I tuck into my favorite chocolate – Chuckles or Whispers – for some comfort."Chad le Clos

Ingredients
- 9 ounces bittersweet chocolate roughly chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon dark rum Optional
Instructions
- Place chocolate in a medium mixing bowl.
- Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil, watching very carefully because if it boils for even a few seconds, it will boil out of the pot.
- As soon as the cream comes to a boil, pour it over the chocolate in the mixing bowl. Whisk until chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth, then stir in rum.
- To use ganache as a cake glaze, cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Start pouring glaze at the center of the cake and work outward.
- For a fluffy frosting or chocolate filling, allow it to cool until thick (up to 1 hour in the refrigerator), and then whip until light and fluffy. Apply it with a spatula like conventional frosting.
