  • while cream and syrup mixture cooks, add chocolate and butter to microwave for 30 seconds on high

  • repeat # 2.
  • take cream concoction and pour over chocolate (this is also where you will add cognac) wait ten minutes before you stir together.
  • after stirring all ingredients, pour into a flat baking pan and let cool in fridge for 1 hour.
