π Preparation Steps
1
Set a glass or metal bowl over a pot of gently simmering water to create a double boiler (do not let the water touch the bowl). Add heavy cream to bowl and heat until the cream feels hot to the touch (140 to 150 degrees).
2
Add chocolate and whisk until smooth. Remove the bowl from heat and place in refrigerator to cool, stirring occasionally, about β±οΈ 2 hours (see note 4 for how to use an ice bath).
3
Stir in the vanilla and salt. In a stand mixer fit with the whisk attachment, or with an electric hand mixer, mix on medium-high speed until mixture is firm enough to hold a soft dollop. The frosting will continue to firm up as it sits.
