Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the heavy cream, granulated sugar, and unsweetened cocoa powder to the saucepan. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to ensure it doesn’t scorch. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Continue stirring until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the sauce is glossy.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
Allow the fudge sauce to cool slightly before serving. It will thicken as it cools.
Use immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop before serving.
