Dark Chocolate Frosting - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    12 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
    1 tablespoon corn syrup
    1 pinch salt
    1/2 cup heavy cream
    1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
    8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (1 stick)
Preparation
    Place chocolate, corn syrup, and salt in food processor.
    In small saucepan, bring cream to boil.
    With machine running, add hot cream in steady stream and blend until chocolate melts, about 1 minute.
    Stop food processor and add confectioners' sugar, processing until sugar is incorporated, about 30 seconds. While machine is running, add butter, a piece at a time, and process until completely smooth, about 1 minute.
    Place frosting in medium bowl and refrigerate, stirring frequently, until cooled and very thick, at least 30 minutes. You'll know it's ready when a spoon can stand up in it.
