I've used coconut milk with good results. Yum!

I have made the avocado chocolate mousse/ice cream (pretty much just the mousse/frosting recipe frozen) that Lillian Medville has tested on her blog Lillian's Test Kitchen. The original recipe (I think) was from Sarah of The Messy Chef. It rocks, despite sounding totally bizarre, is healthy to boot, and it is very adaptable -- I've messed with the recipe with great results : ) I am certain you could thicken it a little to more of a ganache texture -- just use less avocado and go from there. To illustrate how good it is: my husband who has no food restrictions BEGS for this -- as in, EVERY. DAY. Wants nothing to do with ice cream or conventional frosting when this is an option. Hope this gives you another idea!
Let me know if you have questions or if this won't work; I have created an amazing ganache with coconut oil before, but it does tend to melt a bit more readily than the above suggestion.
