Traditional Chocolate Ganache

Ingredients:
pascha, organic bitter-sweet dark chocolate chips,
cream, fluid, heavy whipping
vanilla extract

Directions:
Combine the chocolate and cream in a medium-size saucepan and stir over medium-low heat until the chocolate melts and the mixture begins to bubble a little around the sides.
Quickly whisk the mixture until it comes together in a smooth chocolate sauce.
Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla.
Pour into a heatproof bowl that can go into the freezer.
Chill the ganache in the freezer just until it thickens, about 15 minutes.
Use immediately to glaze the top of a cheesecake.
Let some ganache drizzle down the sides-or, if you wish, frost the sides completely, using a narrow metal icing spatula.
Do not cover.
Return the cake to the freezer for 1 hour before cutting.
