Method
- Place the cream in a pan over a medium heat and bring up to a simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate and stir. The chocolate will melt in the heat of the cream. Crumble in the biscuits and stir to combine thoroughly. Empty the chocolate mixture onto a shallow plate and allow to cool in the fridge for approximately 2hours.
- Once firmer to touch but still mouldable, empty the ganache onto a work surface and roll out into a long log shape. Roll this into a sheet of clingfilm, wrap it up and put back in the fridge for 30mins. Once ready to serve, unwrap and with a sharp knife slice into 1cm discs and serve.
