How to Make German Chocolate Cake With Milk Chocolate Ganache
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your favorite German chocolate cake mix according to package directions.
- Pour batter into a greased and floured 10-inch bundt pan. Bake according to package directions, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean (approximately 30-35 minutes).
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cake is completely cool, place it on a serving plate.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy whipping cream and bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
- Remove from heat and add 12 ounces of milk chocolate chips (semi-sweet or bittersweet). Stir constantly until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
- Pour the ganache into a bowl and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes, until it reaches a spreadable consistency but still has a slight drip.
- Generously pour and spread the ganache over the cooled cake.
- Using a vegetable peeler, shave milk chocolate bar over the ganache to create chocolate shavings.
