Satiny Chocolate Glaze

Quick, easy glaze for cakes and cookies. I use it with the Too Much Chocolate Cake recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3 Tbs. butter
1 Tbs. light corn syrup
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:
STOVE: In a double boiler over hot, but not boiling water, combine chocolate chips, butter and corn syrup. Stir until chips are melted and mixture is smooth, then add vanilla. Spread warm glaze over top of cake, letting it drizzle down the sides.

MICROWAVE: In a microwave-safe bowl, add chocolate chips, butter, and corn syrup and microwave at 50% power for 45 seconds. Stir. Repeat. Stir. Microwave at 15 second intervals if necessary. Add vanilla and stir well.

Pour over cake, cookies, ice-cream, etc. and allow to set.

YIELD:
Makes 1 cup
