This 2-ingredient ganache is ridiculously easy to make and tastes divine!
I needed a chocolate ganache recipe for the cake I was making for Matthew's birthday. A quick google brought me to the Food Network site and a very simple recipe popped up. It is by far the easiest recipe I think I have ever made and tastes incredibly delicious. It does require some cool time (2 hours in the fridge or 4 hours at room temperature), but it is so worth the wait.

What you need:
- 8 oz. bittersweet chocolate
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Chop chocolate finely as best as you can. Then place in a medium heatproof bowl.
- In a small saucepan, bring heavy cream to a boil. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't boil over. It happens in the blink of an eye.
- Pour boiling cream over chocolate immediately. Gently tap the bowl on the counter so the chocolate settles and then let sit for 1 minute, undisturbed.
- Slowly stir with a rubber spatula starting from the center and working to the sides. Try not to add air to it. Stir for about 2 minutes until chocolate is melted completely.
- Let sit at room temperature until it cools to 70 degrees. This will take around 4 hours.
- The ganache is ready to use --or-- cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
While not ganache, this Maple Cream is also a fantastic 2-ingredient recipe. But this Nutella Ganache Dip recipe from Wine and Glue is ganache and also a lovely dessert slash appetizer that I would love to try.
