Chocolate Ganache Frosting
- 1 pound good-quality bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 2 1/3 cups heavy cream
- 1/4 cup corn syrup
- Place chocolate in a large heatproof bowl.
- Bring cream and corn syrup just to a simmer over medium-high heat; pour mixture over chocolate.
- Let stand, without stirring, until chocolate begins to melt.
- Beginning near the center and working outward, stir melted chocolate into cream until mixture is combined and smooth (do not overstir).
- Refrigerate, stirring every 5 minutes, until frosting just barely begins to hold its shape and is slightly lighter in color.
- Use immediately (ganache will continue to thicken after you stop stirring).
