Preparation

Step 1

Combine cream and corn syrup in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer. Add chocolate and cook over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and let stand for 8 minutes (If chocolate is not completely melted, place mixture back over love heat and stir constantly until melted.)

Add vanilla and stir gently until mixed.

Allow glaze to cool until tepid. Drizzle a spoonful of glaze back into the pan. If it mounds a little, the glaze is ready for pouring over the cake. (You can refrigerate the glaze to sped up the cooling process, but check it every few minutes, stirring the mixture gently. Otherwise it may set up too quickly.)

After glaze is poured over cake, let sit about 1 hour until glaze fully sets.
