📝 Instructions

8 steps

1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

2. Once the butter is melted, add the granulated sugar, light corn syrup, heavy cream, unsweetened cocoa powder, malted milk powder, and kosher salt.

3. Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and begins to simmer (about 3-4 minutes).

4. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for another 2-3 minutes to allow the sugar to fully dissolve.

5. Remove the saucepan from heat and add the finely chopped dark chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and glossy.

6. Stir in the vanilla extract and mix well.

7. Let the hot fudge cool slightly before serving. The sauce will thicken as it cools.

8. Serve warm over ice cream, brownies, or any dessert of your choice! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before using.
