Preparation

Step 1

Heat the cream and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil.

Immediately pour the boiling cream over the chocolate and allow to stand for a minute or two. Stir with a rubber spatula until smooth. (If the chocolate doesn't melt completely, place in the microwave for about 20 seconds, or over a saucepan of simmering water, just until melted.) If desired, add the liqueur.

Cover and place in the refrigerator until the chocolate mixture is firm (this will take several hours or overnight).
