# What You'll Need:
→ Chocolate Ganache
01 - 10.5 oz dark chocolate (60–70% cocoa), chopped
02 - 1 cup heavy cream
03 - 2 tbsp unsalted butter, cubed
04 - 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
05 - Pinch of salt
→ Spiderweb Decoration
06 - 2 oz white chocolate, chopped
→ Dippers
07 - 12–16 fresh strawberries, hulled
08 - 12–16 large marshmallows
09 - 12–16 shortbread or butter cookies
10 - 1 cup pretzel rods
11 - 1 cup assorted fresh fruit (apple slices, banana pieces, orange segments)
# How to Make It:
01 - Place chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer, avoiding boiling. Pour hot cream over chocolate and let sit for 1–2 minutes. Add butter, vanilla extract, and salt, then stir gently until smooth and glossy. Allow to cool for 5–10 minutes until thickened but still spreadable.
02 - Spread ganache evenly on a large serving board or platter, creating a ½-inch thick layer. Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Transfer melted white chocolate to a piping or ziplock bag with a small corner cut. Pipe 3–4 concentric circles atop the ganache. Using a toothpick, drag lines outward from the center through the circles to form a spiderweb pattern.
03 - Neatly place strawberries, marshmallows, cookies, pretzel rods, and assorted fresh fruit around the ganache on the board. Serve immediately for guests to dip or scoop.
