To make the GanacheWhen you’re ready to glaze the cake, place the chocolate chips in a heat-resistant bowl. Heat the milk, brown rice syrup, and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium heat until very foamy. Pour the milk mixture over the chocolate chips, whisking to make a creamy, smooth ganache. Spoon over the cake, allowing the chocolate to run down the sides of the cake. Decorate with apricot roses, if desired. |
