Hot Fudge Sauce Recipe
The Ingredients
- Heavy cream – it is important to use heavy cream in this recipe and not milk for the right consistency and flavor.
- Unsalted butter – we use unsalted butter since the amount of salt in butter can vary. If you prefer to use salted butter, simply omit the salt in this recipe.
- Granulated sugar
- Salt
- Semi-sweet chocolate bar – use semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate for the best flavor.
- Unsweetened cocoa powder – the cocoa powder gives the hot fudge sauce an even richer chocolate flavor.
How to Make Hot Fudge Sauce Recipe
To a small saucepan, add the cream, unsalted butter, sugar, and salt. Place over medium heat and cook until the butter is melted and the mixture begins to simmer, stirring frequently.
Simmer for one minute, then reduce the heat to low and add the chocolate; stir well until melted.
Remove the fudge from heat and whisk in the cocoa powder. Return to the heat and cook on low for about 30 seconds while whisking until smooth.
