I need to make a whipped chocolate ganache filling. I've made the ganache recipe on this site but I'm not sure how to get it to whip up. Can someone help me please!

as the ganache cools, you can beat it with a whisk. It will beat stiff enough to pipe. I ususally do this in stages. Beat it some, put it in the fridge for 5-10 minutes, then beat it some more, repeat as needed.

If you use a hand mixer or KA, it will work, too. But, there is a risk of overbeating. The ganache can break. It is easy to fix, but it means you have to gently re-melt the ganache and start over.

Thank you for your help. I'm off to do so beating. I have to take this cake to a co-worker tomorrow and I'm hoping for the best. I love this site - it is addictive. Once again, thanks for helping!
