Pastry and creams

Coffee ganache

A white chocolate and coffee ganache that is whipped until it can be piped.

  • about 600 ml, enough to top 12 small cakes
  • Prep 15 min
  • Cook 5 min
  • Rest 6 hr

Ingredients

  • 250 ml double cream
  • 2 tsp (about 4 g) instant coffee
  • 200 g white chocolate

Method

  1. Break the white chocolate into small pieces and put it in a bowl.
  2. Heat the cream and coffee in a small pan, stirring, until small bubbles form at the edges but it is not boiling.
  3. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate, leave for 1 minute, then stir until smooth and glossy.
  4. Let the ganache cool to room temperature, cover the surface with cling film and chill for at least 6 hours.
  5. Whip the cold ganache with an electric whisk until it is pale and fluffy.
  6. Spoon it into a piping bag and pipe it onto cakes, tarts or dessert cups.

Note: If the ganache is very firm, leave it at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before whipping; it will split if overwhipped, so stop as soon as it holds its shape.

From Chef Fatma's notebook. Where the notebook listed only the ingredients, we wrote out the method for a home kitchen. Measures: 1 cup = 200 ml, 1 tbsp = 15 ml, 1 tsp = 5 ml. Oven temperatures are for a conventional oven without a fan. If you have an allergy, please read the ingredients carefully.
