White Chocolate Ganache

A beautiful, easy white chocolate ganache recipe, perfect for spring treats: beautiful cake topping, homemade chocolates, drizzled or smoothed for frosting over a cake or cupcakes, whipped and used as frosting.  I find, particularly for white chocolate, using a high quality chocolate is imperative if you want a good, clean texture for your ganache. I've previously posted how to properly temper chocolate for molded chocolates if you want to make molded chocolates, like the ones pictured here.  Enjoy!

Stir gently until smooth.  For truffles, follow directions similar to dark or milk chocolate ganache.
