For an extra glossy finish, add a teaspoon of light corn syrup to the mixture while melting. If you don't have a double boiler, a heatproof glass bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water works just as well. Just be sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. The hardened glaze can be a bit brittle. For easier slicing, let the glazed cake/brownies sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes before cutting. Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate, such as dark chocolate or milk chocolate, to customize the flavor to your liking.
