Classic Hot Fudge Sauce
Report
This Classic Hot Fudge Sauce is everything a great dessert topping should be—rich, smooth, and packed with chocolate flavor. 🍫

Ingredients
- 130 g (⅔ cup) light brown sugar or granulated sugar
- 40 g (½ cup) Dutch-process cocoa powder, sifted
- 45 g (¼ cup) bittersweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bar (e.g., Ghirardelli or Baker’s)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter , cut into 4 pieces and chilled
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 240 ml (1 cup) heavy cream
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the cream, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and let it simmer for about 1 minute.
- Off heat, stir in chocolate, and let sit for 1 minute. Whisk the sauce until smooth, and the chocolate is fully melted. Add the cocoa powder and whisk until smooth, with no lumps remaining.
- Return the pan to low heat and simmer the sauce, whisking constantly, until it becomes glossy and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 1 minute.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Serve the sauce warm.
