Ingredients for the chocolate ganache
- 100 g dark chocolate, chopped
- 70 ml heavy cream
- 10g butter, at room temperature.
Directions
- Place the chocolate in a large, heatproof bowl. Set aside.
- Pour the heavy cream into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat.
- Carefully pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Mix from the center to the outside with a silicone spatula until the chocolate melts completely. Add the butter and mix gently until the butter is fully incorporated and the ganache is smooth and glossy.

Customization ideas:
French lavender and chocolate: Add a pinch of dry lavender flowers to the cream before boiling. This will give a delicate floral flavor to the chocolate.
