Equipment

  • 1 Small saucepan or heatproof bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 6 Oz White chocolate, finely chopped
  • 1/4 Cup Heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Melt Chocolate:
    Stovetop: Place chopped white chocolate, heavy cream, and butter in a small saucepan over very low heat. Stir constantly until melted and smooth.
