Bakers Chocolate Glaze Recipes

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

Steps:

• Melt cocoa and butter together in a small saucepan over low heat, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract. Stir in hot water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until glaze is thick and smooth.

BAKER'S CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Melt both ingredients together in microwave, stirring every 1 1/2 minutes or so.
• Wait about 15 minutes for it to thicken before frosting cake.
• (Make sure cake is cooled first.).

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.

SEMI-SWEET CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Microwave chocolate, water and butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 min. or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after 30 sec.
• Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
• Add sugar and vanilla; stir until well blended.
