Chocolate–Orange Ganache filling
 
Makes about 1 cup
Ingredients
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 orange, zested
  • 1⅓ cups (227 grams) 66% cacao bittersweet chocolate, chopped
Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, combine cream and orange zest over medium-high heat. Bring to just below a boil; remove from heat. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  2. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve; discard solids. Return cream to saucepan, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  3. Place chocolate in a medium heat-proof bowl. Pour simmering cream over chocolate, and cover with plastic wrap for 5 minutes. Whisk together chocolate and cream until smooth. Let cool completely in refrigerator before using, 1 to 2 hours. (Chocolate should be pliable but not runny.)
