Category: Desserts
Servings: 1
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Dark chocolate | 150g |
| Whole milk | 100g |
| Glucose | 30g |
Instructions:
-
Prepare the chocolate: Begin by finely chopping the dark chocolate into small pieces. This will ensure that it melts smoothly and evenly when combined with the other ingredients.
-
-
Heat the milk and glucose: Pour the whole milk into a saucepan. Add the glucose and stir with a spatula to help it dissolve fully. Place the saucepan over low-medium heat and gently warm the mixture, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
-
Combine the chocolate: Once the milk mixture is hot, but not boiling, reduce the heat to its lowest setting. Gradually add the finely chopped chocolate to the milk mixture, stirring constantly until the chocolate is completely melted. Continue stirring until the mixture becomes smooth and glossy.
-
Achieve the right consistency: You should aim for a smooth, fluid glaze. If necessary, adjust the heat slightly to help the ingredients blend together, but be cautious not to overheat the mixture.
-
Cool and store: Once the chocolate glaze reaches the desired texture, remove the saucepan from the heat. Cover the glaze with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming and allow it to cool to room temperature. The glaze is now ready to be used on cakes, pastries, or any dessert you desire.
Enjoy your delicious homemade chocolate glaze! This rich and silky topping adds the perfect finishing touch to your baked treats.
