Chef's Notes

NotesThis recipe makes about a little over 1 cup of ganache, which is plenty to add drips around an 8-inch layer cake.
I like to use mini white chocolate chips because they melt better. However, because they’re smaller, I’m able to fit more of them in 1 cup than if I were to use regular white chocolate chips (170g vs. 160g).
With this in mind, if you use regular white chocolate chips, you may want to slightly overfill your cup measure to account for this difference or use a kitchen scale to weigh your white chocolate chips.
If you can’t find heavy cream at your grocery store, heavy whipping cream will work too.
Extra ganache can be covered with plastic wrap or kept in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks!
