Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a small saucepan and add the butter cut into small cubes.

Remove from heat and stir in the chopped chocolate in two or three additions, mixing until fully melted and the glaze is shiny and lump-free.

Stir in the vanilla extract and let cool for 5 minutes before pouring over your cake or dessert.
💡 Chef's Tip
Use good-quality chocolate (55–70% cocoa) for a deeper flavour. If the glaze sets too firm, warm it gently with a splash of cream to loosen it back up.
