Yield makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups cocoa powder
1 cup light corn syrup
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons coffee extract
1 pound bittersweet chocolate (minimum 66% cacao), chopped
1/3 cup brandy or 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine the cocoa powder, corn syrup, sugar, coffee extract, and 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly with a whisk to prevent the cocoa from burning, until the fudge sauce bubbles and is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the chocolate, and stir until the chocolate is melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the brandy and set the fudge in a warm place until you are ready to serve it. Alternatively, let the fudge sauce cool to room temperature and then transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate it until you're ready to serve it, or for up to several weeks. Before serving, warm the fudge sauce over medium-low heat, stirring constantly to prevent it from scorching.

Tips:

  • Use the right chocolate. Helen's Hot Fudge Sauce recipe calls for unsweetened chocolate. This type of chocolate has a high cocoa content and a low sugar content, which results in a rich, dark fudge sauce.
  • Don't overheat the chocolate. If you overheat the chocolate, it will seize and become grainy. To prevent this, heat the chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly.
  • Add the cream and milk slowly. When you add the cream and milk to the chocolate, do it slowly and gradually. This will help to prevent the sauce from curdling.
  • Cook the sauce until it reaches the desired consistency. The sauce should be thick and creamy, but not too thick. If the sauce is too thick, you can thin it out with a little bit of milk or cream.
  • Serve the sauce warm. Hot fudge sauce is best served warm. You can reheat it in the microwave or on the stovetop over low heat.

Conclusion:

Helen's Hot Fudge Sauce is a delicious and versatile dessert sauce. It can be used to top ice cream, brownies, cakes, and other desserts. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for fruit or pretzels. With its rich, chocolatey flavor, Helen's Hot Fudge Sauce is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
