Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Add the finely chopped chocolate to the melted butter. Stir constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy. (Approximately 5 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Slowly pour the hot water into the chocolate mixture, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Add the sugar and corn syrup. (1 minute)

04

Step
9 mins

Continue cooking and stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved and the sauce is smooth and consistent. (About 8-10 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until well combined. (1 minute)

06

Step
0 mins

Let the sauce cool slightly before serving. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

For an extra layer of flavor, try using dark chocolate instead of semisweet.
A pinch of espresso powder can enhance the chocolate flavor.
If the sauce becomes too thick in the refrigerator, gently reheat it over low heat, adding a tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.

    So easy to make and tastes better than anything you can buy in the store. I added a dash of cinnamon, and it was incredible!
