• Scrape the processor mixture back into the saucepan and place over medium heat.
• Continue cooking, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon, for 3 minutes - until mixture is thick.

• Remove from the heat, add the chocolate and let stand 1 minute.
• Whisk until melted and smooth.
• Strain through a mesh strainer into a large metal bowl and set into a basin containing ice water.
