Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup light corn syrup
- 0.75 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until fully liquefied.
Step 2
Once melted, stir in the heavy cream, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and light corn syrup. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring constantly to prevent burning. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the saucepan and stir continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and the sauce becomes thick and glossy.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Mix until fully incorporated.
Step 6
Let the hot fudge sauce cool slightly before serving. It will thicken further as it cools.
Step 7
Serve warm over your favorite desserts, such as ice cream or brownies. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave before serving.
