   Combine the chocolate, cocoa powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
2. 2
   Combine the glucose, sugar, and heavy cream in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and stir intermittently while bringing to a boil over high heat.

   The moment it boils, pour it into the bowl holding the chocolate.
4. 4
   Let sit for 1 full minute.
5. 5
   Slowly, slowly begin to whisk the mixture.
6. 6

7. 7
   This will take 2 to 4 minutes, depending on your speed and strength.

   You can use the sauce at this point or store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks; do not freeze.

    Or any ice cream, for that matter.
