Homemade Vegan Chocolate Ganache

This Vegan Chocolate Ganache is rich, silky, and dangerously easy to make. Learn how to make it perfectly thick and glossy using just 2 simple vegan ingredients!

Ingredients You’ll Need 

  • Chocolate chips: Use your favorite semi-sweet vegan chocolate chips. For the smoothest melt and even consistency, mini chocolate chips work best since they melt faster and more evenly.
  • Vegan heavy cream: Since traditional ganache is made with dairy-based heavy cream, a vegan heavy cream is the best plant-based alternative. We often use Trader Joe’s Vegan Heavy Whipping Cream or Country Crock Plant Cream.

How to Make Vegan Chocolate Ganache

Microwave method

  1. Add ingredients to a microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Set aside to cool, then enjoy! 

Double boiler method

  1. Place ingredients in a double boiler or a glass bowl that fits over a small pot filled with water. 
  2. Bring the water to a simmer and warm the ganache ingredients until smooth, mixing occasionally.
