Instead of putting the pan in the oven, put it in the refrigerator, and in the meantime prepare the chocolate glaze. Pour the sweet cream into a small container and heat it slowly, but make sure it does not boil! Add chocolate to it and stir over low heat until the chocolate is completely dissolved and a smooth mixture is obtained. Then remove the pan from the heat and add a teaspoon of butter and stir until it is completely melted and the glaze thickens a bit. Pour it evenly over the light mass and place the pan in the refrigerator overnight so that the bajadera cools down and hardens properly. Then just cut and serve. Have a good run!
