Hot Fudge Sauce

Print Recipe

A glossy, deeply chocolatey sauce perfect for ice cream, brownies, or any dessert craving.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
  • 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients in saucepan. In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, add the chopped semi-sweet chocolate, granulated sugar, heavy cream, light corn syrup, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.
  2. Whisk until smooth. Whisk the mixture together until smooth, ensuring the chocolate is melted and the ingredients are well combined.
  3. Bring to a boil. Whisk occasionally and allow the mixture to come to a boil.
  4. Boil for 3 minutes. Once boiling, let it boil for 3 minutes while continuing to whisk occasionally.
  5. Check the temperature. Check that the hot fudge has reached 220°F (104°C); it should be noticeably thicker and glossy.
  6. Finish off heat. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the softened butter and pure vanilla extract until fully combined.
  7. Serve or store. Use the sauce immediately for ice cream or desserts, or cool it down and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Notes

To store, cool to room temperature and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
