Chocolate Ganache and truffles!

Last night I made pound cake and needed chocolate ganache or something to go on it but just a little. Found a quick recipe for Ganache and had some extra and here is what I did with both.

Chocolate Ganache

Ingredients
1 1/4 C Semi sweet Chocolate chips/ chocolate
1/3 cup heavy cream

Directions
Place chocolate in microwave safe bowl and pour cream over the top
Microwave for 60-90 seconds until cream is hot
Let sit for 2-3 minutes
Stir well to melt all the chocolate to make smooth
Drizzle over cake


So I didn't need a whole measuring cup full so what do you do with the wrest? Make more cake? You can
Eat as fudge? You can
Let your kids crack out? You Can
Or Make Truffles! I did

So, I placed in the fridge over night so would turn a bit more solid form.
