Ingredients

  • 1 cup (168g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup (1 stick, 113g) unsalted Challenge butter

Instructions

  • Fill a pot about halfway full of water. Bring it to a simmer over low heat. Find a heat-safe bowl (glass or stainless steel) that can be set into the pot. Make sure the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water. The steam is what will melt the chocolate.
  • Add the chocolate and butter to the heat-safe bowl. With the heat on low, use a rubber spatula to stir the chocolate until it is melted and smooth. This takes about 5 minutes.
