vegan chocolate ganache on a cupcake

Vegan Ganache (2 Ingredients!)

Print Recipe
This vegan ganache is perfect to drizzle over vegan ice cream or cheesecakes, but I also love using it as a vegan ganache frosting for cupcakes! This is the perfect ganache to make if you’re dairy-free or vegan.

  • Heat proof mixing bowl

Ingredients

  • cup heavy cream or full fat coconut cream

Instructions

  • Chop the chocolate and place in a heat proof bowl. Pour the coconut cream into a small saucepan and place over medium heat.

Notes

Note: I highly recommend using a kitchen scale to weigh your dry ingredients. Metric measurements are found above under the "Metric" tab.
Ganache: Either let the ganache firm up at room temperature or in the fridge if you are short on time.
