Ingredients
- 300 ml double cream
- 300 g dark chocolate, chopped (minimum 65% cocoa solids)
- 1 tsp salt
- cocoa powder
Standing time 4 hours
Chilling time 5 hours
Instructions
Place the cream in a pan over a medium heat and bring up to a simmer.
Melt the chocolate in a large bowl over a saucepan of simmering water.
When the cream is simmering, remove the pan from the heat, add the salt, and add to the melted chocolate in three batches, making sure that the cream is thoroughly incorporated after each addition. Allow to cool slightly.
Pour the chocolate mixture on to a lined tray and leave to stand at room temperature for 4 hours, then place in the fridge for 5-6 hours or until set.
Using a small melon baller, scoop balls of the chocolate out of the ganache then roll in cocoa powder before serving.
