Description

For a children's cake or cream puffs, you can add a bit of butter to the still warm chocolate sugar glaze and whip it with a mixer. This will soften the flavor of the glaze. Adapted from a popular cooking website.

Ingredients

Cocoa Powder - 2 tablespoons
Sugar - ½ cup
Water - 3 tablespoons

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Mix the sugar with the cocoa powder and add water.

Step 2

Stir well and place on the heat. Cook the glaze over low (very low) heat, stirring constantly.

Step 3

First, the sugar will dissolve, then the syrup will start to bubble.

Step 4

After bubbles appear, cook the glaze for another minute and remove from heat. Allow the glaze to cool and thicken significantly: when hot, it will be too runny, and when completely cooled, it will crystallize and harden.
