No Photo

Yield: about 2 cups

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons corn syrup (optional, see Note)
  • 1 1/4 cups whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons Earl Grey tea (loose tea)
  • 2 cups dark chocolate (such as Valrhona 56 percent cacao), chopped
  • 1/3 cup milk chocolate (such as Callebaut), chopped
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter (softened)

Instructions

  1. Place corn syrup in a saucepan. Add cream (do not stir) and bring to a boil. Add tea, remove from heat immediately, cover and allow to infuse in a warm place 15 minutes.
  2. Place chocolate in a mixing bowl.
  3. Strain infused cream over the chocolate; press the tea well to extract all flavor.
  4. Whisk the ganache, warming if necessary to melt all chocolate.
  5. Add the butter bit by bit and whisk thoroughly to incorporate.

Notes

Corn syrup helps ganache hold its moisture. Use it if you plan to store the ganache for some time.
