This homemade chocolate sauce is easy, and is so delicious. You'll never want the bottled stuff again. Not too sweet, but super chocolaty, and divinely delicious.

Instructions
- Melt butter and chocolate together in a double boiler, or in a large metal bowl set over a pan of simmering water.
- Combine the sugar and cocoa in another bowl and then stir in the heavy cream, mixing until thick and creamy.
- Stir the cream chocolate sauce into the melted chocolate and butter.
- Cook the mixture over simmering water for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Whisk in the vanilla.
- Serve warm or room temperature.
Notes
- The sauce can be stored in the fridge in a jar with a lid (or container with a lid) for up to 2 weeks. It will harden somewhat, however, when chilled. To loosen it, simply let it sit out at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours, or place it in the microwave and hit "Defrost" for about 30 seconds.
- The sauce can be reheated in a pan on the stove over very low heat, or kept warm in a small slow-cooker, or nuked in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
