Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to a medium-sized, 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 chocolate chips and let it sit undisturbed for 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
Using a whisk or spoon, gently stir the mixture until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Add the unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, then stir until the butter is completely melted and the sauce is glossy.
Serve the chocolate dipping sauce immediately. If it thickens as it cools, reheat gently in the microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring in between.
