Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie or in the microwave in short bursts, stirring until you get a smooth cream.
  2. Lightly toast the bread slices so they're crisp.
  3. Spread each slice with a thin layer of butter, then spread the melted chocolate over the whole surface.
  4. Dust with icing sugar if you like a sweeter touch, then serve straight away.

Variations and tips

Salted butter version. Replace the unsalted butter with lightly salted butter and add a pinch of Guérande sea salt.
