Ingredients

8 ounces bittersweet chocolate chunks (or a bar, finely chopped)
½ cup butter
¼ cup instant espresso
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons heavy cream
½ teaspoon Kosher salt

Instructions

Add all of the ingredients except the cream, to a small saucepan.
Place the saucepan over low heat and let the chocolate and butter melt. (You can do this without a double boiler because of the butter -- chocolate alone shouldn't be melted this way.)
Gently stir to blend. Add the cream and stir once again. Done!
