Ingredients:
- 3 cups heavy cream
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin
Instructions:
- In a large saucepan, combine the heavy cream, granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of water, and cocoa.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, whisking often until it thickens to the consistency of hot fudge sauce, approximately 8-10 minutes from the beginning of the simmer. Be vigilant to prevent boiling over.
- Remove the saucepan from heat.
- While the mixture cools, bloom the gelatin in 1 1/2 tablespoons of cold water.
- Melt the bloomed gelatin over very hot water or in the microwave. If using sheet gelatin, soften it for 5 minutes in cold water, wring out the excess water, and whisk it into the chocolate mixture.
- Whisk the gelatin into the chocolate mixture, then strain the glaze through a medium sieve into a metal bowl.
- Allow the glaze to cool at room temperature until it thickens but remains pourable, approximately 5-10 minutes.
- Finally, pour the glaze over your cake or desired dessert, and indulge in its rich, chocolatey goodness!
