Chocolate butter glaze

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 ounces Semisweet chocolate
2 ounces Unsweetened chocolate
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted
Butter

Directions

Chop the chocolate into matchsticksize pieces with a chef's knife on a dry cutting board. Place first the butter, then the chocolate pieces in the top portion of a 1½ quart double boiler (or a 1 quart mixing bowl that fits snugly over a saucepan or another mixing bowl). Fill the bottom vessel half full with hot tap water (120130 degrees) and place the chocolate/butter bowl on top to melt. You may put the double boiler on the stove over a very low flame just to maintain the water's temperature while melting the mixture if you wish. Stir occasionally to blend until the mixture is smooth, shiny and liquid. Remove from the water, and set aside. Yield: one scant cup BAKERS' DOZEN FLO BRAKER SHOW #BD1A13
