Nutella Ganache: 4 Ways!

Place Nutella and butter pieces in a medium bowl. Set aside.

Heat the heavy cream and light corn syrup in a medium saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer.

As soon as mixture begins to simmer, remove from heat and pour over the Nutella and butter.

Cover the bowl and allow to sit for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, slowly whisk until smooth and silky. Allow to sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before using.

You can also cover the ganache with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic is touching the surface so a skin doesn't form. Let the ganache sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours or overnight so it becomes a spreadable consistency that can be used as a filling for cakes or a topping for cheesecakes, ice cream etc.

Heat heavy cream and butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to boil.

This makes a great topping for ice cream, brownies and many more desserts!

Once ganache is firm, transfer to a stand mixer bowl fitted with a whisk attachment, or in the same mixing bowl using a handheld mixer. Whip until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes.
