Add the powdered sugar, heavy cream, vanilla, and food coloring; beat for 3-5 minutes, until fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with the desired tip. Make the ganache: In a medium bowl, add the chocolate. Heat the heavy cream in the microwave for 2 minutes, then pour over the chocolate and stir until thickened.
