2. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 1½ hours, or until ganache holds its shape and is thick enough to spread on cake.
NOTE: You may substitute 3 cups of chopped semisweet or bittersweet chocolate for the chips.
NOTES : This is an ideal frosting and filling for a large variety of cakes. And it's a breeze to prepare with a little help from the microwave.
