You Will Need
-
Step 1
Melt the chocolate, water, butter, and cocoa powder over medium heat, stirring constantly. Add the sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
-
Step 2
Stop stirring. I mean it—take the spoon out of the pot. When the mixture comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low. Keep an eye on it—you want it to boil, but not spatter. Boil 7 to 10 minutes, until thick. (How will you know it’s thick if you’re not allowed to stir? Swirl the pot.)
-
Step 3
Let the sauce cool a little bit—you want to eat it hot, not boiling. (It will thicken as it cools.) Store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to one month. Reheat extra sauce in the microwave.
