Liquid gold!

What is liquid gold?

In my kitchen liquid gold is Chocolate Ganache!

What's chocolate ganache? Well the correct answer is that its more than one thing. Its a beautiful shiny chocolate glaze for a cake or cupcake, Its a light and creamy frosting for a cake or cupcake, its a frosting that you can easily pipe, and add it to whipped cream and it will become a rich, creamy mousse.

How hard is it to make?

Surprisingly, its quite simple to make. It requires only two ingredients.
