Luscious Hot Fudge Sauce

More, please!

Warm and decadent hot fudge sauce poured over ice cream is my favourite treat! When the sauce hits the ice cream, it forms a ribbon of chewy, fudge-tastic goodness. You'll love it so much, you'll want to slap a ring on that fudge and get it to the church on time.

Luscious Hot Fudge Sauce

Ingredients
Makes a little over 1/2 cup sauce
1.5 oz bittersweet or dark chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons cocoa
1/3 cup water
3 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons corn syrup
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon vanilla or other extracts, such as peppermint, almond, orange, etc.

Method

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, stir chopped chocolate, cocoa and water together until cocoa is dissolved and chocolate is melted. 
  2. Add butter, sugar, corn syrup and salt and stir until sugar is dissolved. 
  3. Bring to a slow bubble, turning down heat if necessary, and let mixture simmer without stirring for about 5 minutes. 
  4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla or other flavoring.

Hot fudge can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, but it won't last that long!
