Chocolate ganache as dessert

5 replies

Is it really weird to serve chocolate ganache/ truffle as a dessert by itself? I had a resaurant dessert that basically tasted like chocolate truffle but shaped into a cake instead of individual truffles, but I thought if I did it in little ramekins (you wouldn't want too much!) it would be easier. Is it a bit weird though? I'm imagining it would be like a really dense chocolate mouse. I'd put a blob of whipped cream on top before serving.

For a dinner party - I'm not a domestic goddess who makes desserts for every meal...

I wouldn't serve too much as it would be sickly. Definitely yes ti the whipped cream on top.

I have done it as a dessert, poured over fresh raspberries. It is lovely with white chocolate ganache too.

Yes, with raspberries on top. No to more cream.
I've seen chocolate mousse this rich served in shot glasses if you have loads lying around.

Absolutely Yes to the cream!

Use little ramekins as it will be too much otherwise but it will make a nice dessert I’ve done similar myself

It would work if it had something else with it, raspberries as has been suggested, or mango sorbet or lightly caramelized tangerine or some biscuits such as orange shortbread.
