Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.75 cup Granulated erythritol
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder and granulated erythritol. Mix well to combine the dry ingredients.
Add the heavy cream and butter to the saucepan. Place over medium heat on the stove.
Stir the mixture constantly as the butter melts and the erythritol starts to dissolve. Make sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the saucepan to prevent scorching.
Bring the mixture to a low simmer. Allow it to cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously to ensure it's smooth and uniform.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Mix until thoroughly incorporated.
Let the hot fudge sauce cool for a few minutes. It will thicken as it cools.
Serve warm over your favorite low-carb ice cream or dessert. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator and gently reheat before serving.
