Ingredients

Instructions

  • 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.
  • Pour the hot fudge into a bowl to serve, or a jar with a lid to store in the refrigerator.

Notes

Store hot fudge in a jar with a lid in the fridge. It lasts for up to 1 week.
