Method
 

  1. Chop the bittersweet chocolate finely and place it in a heatproof bowl.
  2. Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.
  3. Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for a minute.
  4. Stir the mixture until smooth and glossy, then add the Baileys and salt.
  5. Cover the ganache with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
