Chocolate Ganache

Chocolate ganache (adapted from one I got from my neighbor) is so unbelievably delicious!  Like thick, rich frosting, almost a meal in itself. :)  I'll post a picture soon.  For now, you get a picture of my cute fellow frosting-recipe hunter.

6 oz of chocolate (I use at least 60% dark or even 70%). Melt in a double boiler with 6 tbs of milk (I've used heavy cream to--if you're up for it)  used , a good pinch of salt (and my secret: a hint of cinnamon). When melted, take it off the boiler and mix in 6 tbp of butter and stir it gently until it is completly smooth. Super on bunt cakes as a glaze but it actually works as a rich frosting if it cools (you can whip it to make it lighter).
