Equipment

  • Digital kitchen scale
  • Saucepan
  • Heat-proof bowl
  • Rubber spatula
  • Immersion blender optional
  • Plastic wrap

Ingredients

  • 150 g white chocolate
  • 150 ml heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon instant coffee
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 30 g unsalted butter softened

Instructions

  • Place the chocolate into a heatproof bowl.
  • Pour the heavy cream into a saucepan and add the instant coffee and salt. Heat the cream over medium heat until it starts simmering. Remove from the heat and whisk to dissolve the coffee granules.
  • Pour the cream mixture into the bowl with the chocolate. Stir until the chocolate has melted and the mixture has a homogeneous consistency. If still hot, allow it to cool down until warm to the touch.
  • Add the butter and stir to incorporate. Additionally, you can blend the mixture with an immersion blender to ensure there are no pieces of chocolate and butter left.
  • Cover the ganache with plastic wrap, ensuring the wrap touches the surface, and refrigerate for a minimum of 6 hours or overnight.
  • Take the ganache out of the fridge and stir until slightly softened. Then, transfer it into a piping bag and pipe it, or use it as desired. You can also whip this ganache for 1 minute or until soft peaks form to achieve a fluffy texture. Be careful not to overwhip it!
