Keep stirring over medium heat for about 5 minutes until the glaze thickens and reaches a full rolling boil.

Remove from heat and immediately pour over your cake, brownies, or dessert of choice while the glaze is still warm and pourable for a smooth, glossy finish.
💡 Chef's Tip
For a deeper chocolate flavor, swap the cocoa powder for 2 oz of melted dark chocolate (70% cocoa). Apply the glaze while it's hot for the best coverage.
