Description

No complicated techniques required! Create an indulgent "Ganache" experience effortlessly by just mixing the ingredients and chilling.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 100g chocolate
  • 30g nuts
  • 100g cream cheese
  • Cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Crush the nuts by placing them in a bag and using a rolling pin to break them into larger pieces. It's fine to have bigger fragments to retain the texture.
  2. Place the chocolate in a bowl and melt it using either the microwave or a double boiler. Once melted, add the cream cheese and crushed nuts to the chocolate and mix them together.
  3. Shape the mixture into a square, and wrap it tightly with plastic wrap. Chill it in the refrigerator for about 1 hour to set.
  4. Sprinkle cocoa powder on top according to your preference. Use a heated knife to cut into desired pieces. Wipe the knife with kitchen paper after each cut to achieve clean and neat edges.

Notes

How to make the truffle version

  1. (The ingredients in step 4. are the same until you mix them and refrigerate them to harden.)
  2. Cut into pieces with a knife and roll into rounds with your hands.
  3. Sprinkle with cocoa powder.
