A friend of mine is getting married this month and has asked me to do the desserts. I'm so stoked for this, its a small outdoor wedding on the beach. So we're doing cookies and brownies.
For the brownies, I want them to be thick and chewy with some chocolate ganache on top. It sounds and looks like a lot of work, but I swear it's not! Here's what you do:
Get a box of brownie mix and prepare according to the box for cake style brownies, or omit one egg for a more fudgy chewy brownie. ( this is what I did)
Let the brownies cool completely and then make your ganache.
Ganache is one of those things that sounds, looks and tastes so fancy that people are sometimes scared to attempt it. But it's only TWO ingredients!
You need 1 1/3 cup chocolate chips and 1 cup of heavy cream.
1.Heat the cream in a saucepan. ( make sure you have a lid for the pan you're using)
- Once the cream has heated through and is beginning to bubble, remove from heat and dump your chocolate chips in. Swirl the pan a bit to make sure all the chips are covered and then put the lid on it.
- Set your timer for 5 minutes and wait.
- Remove the lid and whisk the chocolate and cream together until it all melts and mixes together. You'll know it's done when it begins to thicken a little and it'll start to get all shiny and pretty. 😍
- Pour over your brownies and chill in the fridge for a few hours.
That's it! Delectable fudgy chocolatey brownies are that easy! Enjoy!
