Step Three: Dip, Pour and More!

The vegan chocolate ganache is done when it’s smooth and glossy. Now it’s time to dip your faves in this chocolate ganache, or pour it over cakes, cupcakes, and more. Make sure to do so while the ganache is warm to ensure a glossy finish. If it hardens up, heat again in the microwave and whisk until smooth.

Great Tools for the Best Vegan Chocolate Ganache

  • Coconut Cream – Coconut cream is the cream base for your vegan chocolate ganache. The best thing about it? You can use any extra you have for a number of vegan recipes!
  • Vegan Chocolate Chips – My favorite vegan chocolate chips to use in everything from vegan chocolate chip cookies to vegan fudge. This one meshes really well with coconut cream to make the perfect vegan chocolate ganache.
  • Small Glass Mixing Bowls – My go-to prep bowls for vegan bake time! They just so happen to be the perfect size for mixing up this recipe. 🙂

By the spoonful or tastefully dipped? How will you enjoy your vegan chocolate ganache? 🙂 I can’t wait to hear what you and your loved ones think. Thank you for stopping by and sharing in these sweet vegan baking adventures with me. ‘Til the next one…

Notes

*How to replace coconut cream with cream from canned coconut milk: the night before, place a can of full-fat coconut milk (cans NOT marked “light”) in the fridge, being careful not to shake the contents. Day of, open the can and gently scoop the solid, white coconut layer off the top—this is coconut cream.

Room Temperature Storing: Okay to store at room temperature for 3-4 hours, but soft and a bit fragile. Best if kept in the refrigerator.

To Refrigerate Ganache In Advance: You can make the ganache in advance. Make the ganache as directed. Allow to cool, then cover. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. When you’re ready to use, heat in the microwave or on the stovetop, stirring/whisking regularly, until smooth. Then, it’s ready to use!
