Chocolate Ganache

This recipe can be used again and again. Mostly I pour ganache over cake or to dip fruit, but I think it would be delicious on just about anything. To make a vegan version use almond or coconut milk and oil.

5 ounces dark chocolate
1 cup cream, coconut milk, or almond milk
1 teaspoon coconut oil, butter, or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pinch of salt

Chop the chocolate into small pieces. Melt in a double boiler. Slowly whisk in milk or cream, oil or butter, vanilla, and salt.
