Chocolate Butter Glaze Food

EASY CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Place the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl.
• Set the cook time to 2 minutes and start the microwave. Do not step away. Stop the microwave every 15-20 seconds and stir the chocolate with a rubber spatula. At first, the chocolate will still be solidified, but this will help to evenly distribute the heat.
• As soon as the chocolate is almost completely melted with only a few solid pieces left, remove it from the microwave. This will likely not take the full 2 minutes.
• Add the butter to the bowl and stir. The heat from the melted chocolate will melt the butter and the solid chocolate pieces to create a smooth glaze. Use immediately.

SATINY CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• 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.

THE BEST CHOCOLATE GLAZE

CHOCOLATE BUTTER

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, using a hand-held mixer, beat the butter until creamy.
• Sift cocoa and icing sugar together, add to butter and mix well.
• Add vanilla and continue beating for 1 - 2 minutes until mixture is smooth.
• Put blended mixture into small dish and serve. If not using butter immediately, cover and refrigerate.
• Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine the butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat and stir until melted. (Be careful not to overheat the chocolate as it could seize.) Alternatively, put the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on medium for about 1 minute. Stir and continue to heat for about 15 seconds at a time, stirring between intervals, until the chocolate and butter are melted and smooth.
• Sift the confectioners' sugar into a small bowl.
• Stir the sifted confectioners' sugar into the melted butter and chocolate. Beat the mixture, adding small amounts of boiling water until thinned as desired. If you happen to find it too thin, add a little more powdered sugar. If too thick, add more hot water.
• Slowly drizzle the chocolate glaze from the pot or bowl over your cooled, finish baked good. If desired, use a spatula to evenly distribute. How long the glaze will take to harden will depend on both the temperature of the glaze and the room. Once cool, it will harden.

• To make the glaze, bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small saucepan.
• Remove from heat and slowly add the chocolate, stirring with a wooden spoon.
• Continuing to stir gently, slowly add the butter piece by piece.
• Once the butter is incorporated, add the chocolate sauce. Stir to combine.

CHOCOLATE-PEANUT BUTTER CHEESECAKE WITH CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Crust: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Wrap bottom and outside of a 9-inch springform pan with a double layer of foil. Coat bottom of pan with cooking spray, and line with parchment. Spray parchment.
• Stir together cookie crumbs, butter, and sugar in a medium bowl. Press mixture firmly into bottom of pan, and bake until firm, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely in pan on wire rack.
• Filling: Melt chocolate in a bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Let cool. Beat cream cheese with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and beat in sugar in a slow, steady stream until combined. Beat in salt and vanilla until thoroughly combined and completely smooth. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until combined after each addition (do not overmix).
• Divide cream-cheese filling in half. Stir peanut butter into 1 half; stir melted chocolate into other half. Ladle 1 cup peanut butter filling into center of crust, and tap pan gently on counter to settle. Ladle 1 cup chocolate filling directly on top of peanut butter filling. Repeat, then switching to half-cup amounts, continue to ladle fillings into crust, alternating them until all of each filling is used.
• Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Set cake pan in a large roasting pan, and transfer to oven. Carefully pour boiling water into roasting pan to reach halfway up sides of cake pan. Bake until cake is set but still slightly wobbly in center, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Let cool completely in pan on wire rack. Refrigerate cake in pan until cold, at least 6 hours, up to overnight. Before unmolding, run a knife around edge of cake. Pour glaze over top of cake, smoothing with an offset spatula and letting it drip down the sides.

BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Place the chocolate, butter, and corn syrup in a small heatproof bowl set in a wide skillet of barely simmering water. Stir frequently and gently (to prevent air bubbles) with a spatula or wooden spoon until the chocolate is almost completely melted. Remove the glaze from the water and set aside to finish melting, stirring once or twice until the glaze is perfectly smooth.
• Or, melt in a microwave on Medium (50%) power for about 2 minutes. Stir gently until completely smooth; do not whisk or beat. Taste and consider adding the salt. To use for crumb coating a cake before glazing it, let cool, without stirring, to a soft frosting consistency. To use as glaze, reheat gently in a pan of hot water (or let cool if just made) to 90°F (for optimal shine) before pouring. (The glaze can be kept, covered and refrigerated, for up to 2 weeks; or freeze it in a sealed container for up to 6 months. Soften or defrost in a pan of hot water or in the microwave.)

CHOCOLATE BUTTER GLAZE

Steps:

• Combine chocolate, butter and corn syrup in a heatproof medium bowl.
• Place in a skillet of barely simmering water.
• Stir frequently, until almost completely melted.
• Remove bowl from skillet and stir until mixture is smooth.
• Do not whisk or beat the glaze.
• Let stand at room temperature without stirring until cooled, thick and spreadable (about 30mins, depending on kitchen temp).
• You may also use microwave for the melting step (as I did), just mix the ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl.
• Nuke the mixture at LOW power for approx 20 sec, remove bowl, stir gently.
• Repeat until chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth.
• The first layer of glaze- Spread a very thin layer using 1/4 of the glaze over the top and sides of cake (cake must be at room temp).
• Be sure to smooth rough surfaces and fill in any cracks.
• Be careful not to get any crumbs into the bowl of glaze.
• This is the'crumb coat', and it gives the cake a smooth and even undercoat for the final glaze.
• The final glaze- Rewarm the glaze in microwave/double boiler for a few seconds.
• Stir gently until smooth.
• Do not overheat; glaze should be 90F for it to dry to a shiny finish.
• If necessary, cool to proper temperature.
• Once the final glaze has been applied, let cake stand at room temp until the glaze sets, about 15mins.
• NOTE: Do no re-spread glaze once it has set, or it will have marks and dull streaks.
