Ingredients

  • 1 cup (190g) white chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 4 to 6 tablespoon heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon brilliant white gel food coloring

Instructions

  • Chop up the white chocolate chips into small pieces and place in a heat safe bowl.
  • Microwave the cream or heat on the stove until very warm to the touch, 45 to 60 seconds.
  • Pour 4 tablespoons of warm cream over the white chocolate chips and let stand for 30 seconds. Whisk to combine and melt the white chocolate.
  • If there are pieces of white chocolate that did not melt, gently reheat. You can microwave at half power for 5 to 10 seconds at a time or place the ganache in a heat-safe bowl over a saucepan of simmering water to create a double boiler.
  • Add the brilliant white gel food coloring and whisk to combine.
  • Check the temperature and consistency of the ganache. It should be fluid but not warm. If the ganache is super thick, add the remaining cream, a tablespoon at a time. Use immediately once at the correct temperature/texture.

Notes

If the ganache is super thick, add the remaining cream, a tablespoon at a time. 
Do not refrigerate to cool the ganache faster.
