Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter ( 1 stick)
3 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
In microwave or very gently on stovetop using low heat, melt butter and chocolate together.
Remove from heat if using stove top just before it is completely melted and stir until it is smooth.
Stir well and add 1/2 cup powdered sugar.
Continue to stir and add the rest of the sugar until it’s well blended- you may not need the entire cup of sugar.
It will look awful!
Now, slowly, slowly, stir in the cream.
Keep stirring and it magically turns into a velvety concoction.
Add the vanilla and stir.
Serve.
NOTE: refrigerate the left overs if there are any, but when you re-heat it, put it in the microwave for about 2 or 3 seconds at a time and stir, stir, stir- be careful or it will separate- if this happens, you can add a little more sugar and cream to bring it back to the right consistency.
