Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream and butter. Heat over medium heat until the butter melts and the mixture is just about to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately pour the mixture over the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl.
Let the chocolate and cream mixture sit undisturbed for 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften and melt.
Using a whisk or spatula, gently stir the mixture until it becomes smooth and glossy.
Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing until fully incorporated.
Allow the glaze to cool for 5-10 minutes until it thickens slightly but is still pourable.
Drizzle the glaze over your bundt cake, letting it run down the sides for a decorative finish. Serve and enjoy!
