chocolate glaze
Cocoa-based frosting layer
Chocolate glaze is a shiny coating poured over cakes, pastries, or doughnuts, made by melting chocolate with butter, cream, or corn syrup.
Unlike frosting, a glaze sets to a smooth, glossy finish rather than staying soft: The éclair was topped with a dark chocolate glaze.
The consistency is thin enough to drip down the sides.
