Best Hot Fudge Sauce

Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Whisk those together until they’re well blended.
  2. Add the heavy cream and butter to the dry mixture. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
  3. Stir continuously until the mixture starts to boil. Once it’s bubbling, let it cook for about 2-3 minutes – keep stirring to prevent scorching.
  4. Take the saucepan off the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. That’s what’s gonna give it that extra kick of flavor!
  5. Let the sauce cool for a few minutes before serving. This sauce thickens up a bit as it cools, so don’t be alarmed if it seems a little runny at first.
  6. Serve it hot over your favorite desserts, or can it up in a jar and store it in the fridge for up to a week. You’ll definitely want to have this on hand for those late-night cravings!

Now you’ve got all you need to whip up the Best Hot Fudge Sauce ever! It’s so simple, yet so delightful. Bring on the ice cream and get ready to indulge in some serious chocolate goodness!
