Equal parts your favorite baking chips and heavy cream. Use a scale to weigh ingredients if possible.
Heat cream to just below the boil. Pour over chocolate chip, cover and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Start stirring and mix will look weird at first. Keep stirring and it will come together and thicken up. allow to cool and store in the fridge. So good, rich, creamy and smooth.
