Directions
- 1
Combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, butter, and whole milk in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
- 2
Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously with a silicone spatula for 8–10 minutes, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- 3
Remove from heat, let cool for 2–3 minutes, then pour evenly over your warm cake for a smooth, glossy finish.
💡 Chef's Tip
For an extra-glossy finish, stir in an additional teaspoon of butter off the heat. Leftover glaze keeps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days — gently reheat in a double boiler before using again.
