Preparation Steps

Prepare the Chocolate Ganache
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heat-proof bowl. In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to soften the chocolate. Stir until smooth and glossy. Add granulated sugar and vanilla extract, mixing well.

Assemble the Dessert
