  • Make the ganache: Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan until just about to boil. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until smooth and glossy.
  • Top it off: Pour the ganache over the chilled cake and spread evenly. Chill again for 30–60 minutes before serving.
  • Optional: Top with whipped topping or serve as-is for a rich, creamy bite.
