Description
Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce is a rich, chocolatey addition to your favorite desserts!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 c. butter
- 1 1/2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 3/4 c. sugar
- 1/4 c. cocoa
- 1/4 c. half and half, whole milk, or heavy cream
- 1/8 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. vanilla
Instructions
- Place butter and unsweetened chocolate in a small saucepan and melt over low heat, stirring constantly.
- Add sugar, cocoa, half and half, and salt. Stir until combined. Bring slowly to a gentle boil withOUT stirring (well, maybe you could stir a couple of times). If you let it go too long, the sides begin to burn; but if you don’t let it go long enough, the sugar crystals won’t dissolve and the sauce will be gritty.
- Remove from heat and add vanilla.
- Serve over your favorite dessert.
