Ingredients

  • 1 litre whipping cream (33% -35% fat) (* 4 cups)
  • 8 ounces -(2 bars) of white baking chocolate *Do NOT use white chocolate chips!
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Add  chopped white chocolate to a microwave safe bowl and heat in the microwave at 50% power for 3 minutes. Heat the whipping cream separately, in another microwave safe bowl (at regular power), for 2-3 minutes or until warm.
  • Remove, combine the warm whipping cream with the melted chocolate and stir well. Then continue to cook in 20 second intervals (at regular power) until the chocolate is incorporated into the whipping cream, stirring each time. There shouldn't be ANY lumps in your white chocolate. * This could take another 2-3 minutes.
  • Cool on counter, then pour into large mixing stand bowl (if you have one)- any large bowl will do. Then cover (I use glad press n' seal) and let stand in refrigerator for 24 hours. 
  • Once the white chocolate ganache is chilled (it will be soft and not solid like regular chocolate ganache), use the whisk attachment on your stand mixer and whip on low speed and gradually working up to high speed until the ganache is light and fluff and reaches stiff peaks.
