1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)Melt chocolate in a double boiler over hot, but not boiling, water. Stir occasionally until the chocolate is smooth. Set aside. In a medium-size mixing bowl, beat cream cheese on low just until smooth. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beaters with a rubber spatula.
