Brownie Tart with White Chocolate Biscoff Ganache + giveaway
- A week or so ago, I received a promotional shipment from Biscoff…a CASE of their cookie spread! After I got my face out of the first jar of it – I mean seriously, it’s amazing, on a spoon, right out of the jar – I decided I really needed to figure out how to bake with it, and STAT. Otherwise, my diet for the week was looking bleak.
- The spread is very much like a peanut butter consistency, so my immediate thought was some sort of butter cream or ganache – a quick look in my pantry revealed a few extra boxes of white chocolate, so this Which Chocolate Biscoff Ganache was born.
- The ganache is very rich, but I’ve gotta tell you, it is the perfect topping for my Amazing Brownies. I halved the recipe and baked them in a tart pan (because doesn’t everything taste better when it’s been baked in a tart pan??) A sprinkle of grated chocolate and some crushed Biscoff cookies for garnish makes this dessert fancy enough for entertaining, but it’s so quick that it’s perfect for a weeknight treat, too. If you don’t have time to whip up a homemade brownie recipe, you can use an 8×8 brownie mix for a little shortcut.
- I’ve found that ganache is really much simpler when made in the microwave – while it’s not a big deal to make it on the stove top, it’s really very easy this way, too. I pour my cream into a medium-sized glass bowl and nuke it for just a minute or so, until the cream is very hot but not quite boiling. Immediately pour the chocolate into the hot cream and let it sit for a minute – once the heat begins to melt the chocolate, just stir constantly for a couple of minutes and you’ll have a beautiful, smooth ganache with half the effort, and half the dishes.
I hope you enjoy the recipe! Thank you again, for coming by my page and taking a few minutes to check out what’s going on in my kitchen. I can’t tell you all enough how much I appreciate you!
