Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 15 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
Chop the dark chocolate into small, evenly-sized pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit undisturbed for 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
Gently stir the mixture with a whisk or spatula until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture becomes smooth and glossy.
Add the unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and sea salt, then stir until the butter melts and everything is well combined.
Transfer the warm chocolate dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately with your choice of dippers, such as fresh strawberries, banana slices, pretzels, marshmallows, or cookies.
