Graham Ganache
Recipe information
Yield
Makes about 150 g (1/3 cup)
Ingredients
1/2 recipe Graham Crust (page 112)
85 g milk (1/3 cup)
2 g kosher salt (1/2 teaspoon)
Preparation
Combine the graham crust, milk, and salt in a blender and puree on medium speed until smooth and homogenous—it will take 1 to 3 minutes (depending on the awesomeness of your blender). If the mixture does not catch on your blender blade, turn it off, take a small teaspoon, and scrape down the sides of the canister, remembering to scrape under the blade, then try again. Use the ganache right away, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
