2. In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove it from heat immediately.

4. Gently stir the mixture until the chocolate is fully melted and the ganache becomes smooth and glossy.
5. Add the unsalted butter and any optional flavorings, stirring until the butter is fully incorporated.
6. Let the chocolate ganache cool for a few minutes before using it as a glaze, filling, or topping for your favorite desserts.
