CHOCOLATE GLAZE (THAT HARDENS WHEN COOL)



Chocolate Glaze (That Hardens when Cool) image

ISO: Chocolate Glaze that dries hard using cocoa and without... Saw this and found the answer. This would be good now with Valentine's Day is near. Try using it like those chocolate dips they have in ice cream shops; it hardens into a shell on the ice cream. Or use it to top your favorite cookie, cupcake, cheesecake, brownie, etc..

CHOCOLATE GLAZE FOR CAKES (THAT HARDENS)



Chocolate Glaze for Cakes (That Hardens) image

This must be put onto a cold cake that has chilled from the refrigerator or it will not harden, this works wonderful for a bundt or tube cake, it may also be used for an ice cream cake --- this glaze firms up but does not turn rock hard

Time 2m

Yield 1 cup (approx)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup shortening or 1/4 cup margarine
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon water

Steps:

  • Make certain that the cake has been chilled in the fridge before starting the glaze.
  • In a 4-cup pyrex bowl or measuring cup or a microwave-safe bowl combine all ingredients.
  • Microwave on HIGH for about 2 minutes or until melted and smooth, removing once to stir.
  • Allow to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to allow to thicken enough so that it will not run off the cake (test out the consistency by drizzling a small amount over the top of the cake).
  • Drizzle over top of the cold cake, then refrigerate (the glaze will harden even more when refrigerated).
