Preparation

Step 1

Bake brownies according to directions on box (or according to your favorite recipe).

Step 2

Place chocolate in a heat-resistant bowl. Heat the heavy cream to just before boiling, remove from heat and pour over chocolate chips, whisking until all chocolate is melted. Immediately pour over baked brownies. Let ganache cool before digging in.

Ganache is great over just about anything from fruit to cakes to cookies, and super easy to make. Try different chocolates (peppermint chocolate, semi-sweet, milk chocolate) for different flavors
