Ingredients

Directions

  1. Chop the dark and milk eating chocolate into small, uniform pieces to ensure even melting.
  2. Place the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
  3. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer; do not boil vigorously.
  4. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate in the bowl.
  5. Let the mixture sit undisturbed for about 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.
  6. Gently stir the mixture with a whisk or spatula, starting from the center and working outward, until smooth and glossy.
  7. If the cream is too thick, stir in a little more warm cream until desired consistency is reached.
  8. Serve warm over desserts or let cool to room temperature to thicken.
