Ganache Sauce-My way

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup skim milk
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 6 oz. semisweet chocolate, coarsely grated
  • 3 tbsp Godiva Liqueur
Makes 2 Cups
  1. In a small saucepan, heat the milk, nutter and sugar just to a simmer.
  2. Place the chopped chocolate in a bowl. Pour the hot milk mixture over the chocolate and let the mixture sit for 5 seconds.
  3. Gently whisk  the ingredients together. When chocolate is melted, whisk in the liqueur.
  4. Pour the sauce into a squeeze bottle and keep warm until ready to use.
  5. Serve with Ice cream or your favorite dessert.
WW POINTS VALUE: Who knows?

Note: This recipe appears in the Calphalon Cookbook. I don't know what the nutritional value is nor do I care. This ganache sauce is a guilty pleasure that should be savored for a special occasion it's that good. I substituted skim milk for heavy cream or half-and-half. I also used Kahlua Liqueur instead of Godiva Liqueur; you can use any Liqueur for this recipe and the sauce will be just as heavenly.
