Ingredients
Creams and Syrup





Chocolate and Peanut Butter



Instructions
Step 1
In a saucepan, combine 70 grams of heavy cream and 10 grams of glucose syrup.
Heat the mixture gently until it reaches 80 degrees Celsius (176 degrees Fahrenheit).
Step 2
Once the cream is heated, pour it over 100 grams of chopped white chocolate.
Add 30 grams of unsweetened peanut butter to the mixture and blend it using an immersion blender until fully combined.
Step 3
While continuing to blend, slowly pour in 70 grams of cold heavy cream.
Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and combined.
Step 4
Cover the ganache with plastic wrap, making sure it touches the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
Place it in the refrigerator for 12 hours to stabilize and set properly.
Step 5
After the ganache has set, use a mixer to whip it until it lightens in color and increases in volume.
This process will give your ganache a fluffy texture perfect for filling or decorating desserts.
Step 6
You can substitute white chocolate with caramelized or milk chocolate for a different flavor profile.
Feel free to replace peanut butter with other nut butters to experiment with new tastes!
Servings
Equipment
A powerful blender will ensure your ganache is smooth and creamy. Start at a low speed and gradually increase to blend all ingredients thoroughly.



To accurately heat your cream, a digital thermometer is key. This ensures your cream reaches exactly 80 degrees for the best results.


Use a glass or metal bowl to combine your ingredients, as this will keep the heat stable when mixing.



A good whisk will help you incorporate air into your ganache after cooling for that perfect fluffy texture.
