Chocolate Ganache Sandwiches
Melanie Acevedo
How to Make It
Step 1
Melt the chocolate chips in the heavy cream over low heat, stirring occasionally until blended. Remove from heat and chill in the refrigerator until cool but not firm.
Step 2
Beat the chocolate cream with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 3
Assemble the sandwiches with 2 Chocolate Wafers and a few tablespoons of ganache.

Very simple and I took the suggestion of a poster and tried other cookies. I think I may add some different flavors to the filling...orange, raspberry, strawberry maybe.

I think Giant (PA) also had them in the general cookie aisle, too!

These have become my new favorite! After sending some into the office with my husband, they were an instant hit. I admit I was a bit flustered when the ganache was more drippy when first piped onto the cookies, but a few moments in the fridge and, as the QUICK TIP states, the wafers absorbed some of the filling and they were even tastier. Yes, I agree the wafers are hard to find, but our Wegman's (PA) had them out by the holiday baking section. SuperFresh (PA) also had them in the general cookie aisle...top shelf. As some others have stated, why not try another cookie? Chips Ahoy, your homemade favorite or even a sugar/shortbread cookie? Mmmm...I'm thinking Girl Scout Trefoils! YUM Thanks for a great recipe, Real Simple!

it is hard to find those cookies and most people at the grocery store don't know where they are. they are hidden in the ice cream topping section. so next to the caramel and chocolate sauces. took me a while to discover them there but that's where they tend to be.
these are awesome cookies and i've made them for years since i discovered them in my real simple mag. a standard at every party.

I used chocolate graham crackers instead. They're just as good and cheaper! :) I LOVE these cookies!

I went to 3 local grocery stores and "Nabisco's Famous Chocolate Wafers" were nowhere to be found . . . even according to the managers. I looked online and you can get a case of 12 at Amazon! Where else? I don't know.

Ganache is what you are making when you combine the chocolate and cream. Chocolate wafers are on the cookie aisle at the grocery store. While chocoloate wafers are probably the perfect cookie, I can see MANY cookie possibilities!

how are we suppose to know how many cookies are in the servings? All of the cookies don't the serving size.
