Chocolate Truffle Filling image

This recipe is from Colette Peters, in a wonderful book called Cakes To Dream On. This is one of the many recipes I tested when making my daughter's first birthday cake. Fabulous filling, couldn't ask for any better. I made one batch using almond extract, and one using 1/2 vanilla and 1/2 orange extract.

Time 20m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

12 ounces semisweet chocolate (chips or chopped blocks, I used 60% bittersweet)
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons flavoring (optional) or 2 teaspoons liqueur (optional)

Steps:

  • Put the chocolate in a large bowl.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the cream just until it starts to bubble.
  • Pour the cream over the chocolate; make sure all the chocolate is covered by the cream (push some pieces down if you need to).
  • Cover the bowl and let it sit there, undisturbed, for 10 minutes, until the chocolate has melted.
  • Whisk the mixture until the chocolate is dark and shiny, then cool to room temperature, or stick it in the fridge until ready to use.
  • If you refrigerate the filling before you put it on the cake, it will get very hard, and you'll need to pop it in the microwave for a few seconds to loosen it up.
  • You can, of course, pour it over the top of cake while it's still warm for a beautiful, smooth, shiny ganache topping.
