In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method), melt the 110g butter and 170g chocolate together, stirring occasionally, until smooth and fully combined. Alternatively, you can melt them in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth.
