Directions
- 1
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter with the water over low heat, stirring continuously until fully combined and smooth.
- 2
Sift the cocoa powder directly into the saucepan to prevent lumps from forming.
- 3
Gradually fold in the cocoa over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- 4
Add powdered sugar to taste and stir for an additional 1–2 minutes. Use warm for a pourable glaze or allow to cool slightly for a thicker consistency.
💡 Chef's Tip
For extra shine, stir in a teaspoon of melted coconut oil. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and reheat gently in a double boiler before using.
