Description
Homemade hot fudge sauce delights dessert enthusiasts with its rich chocolate flavor. Rich cream and premium cocoa create a silky smooth topping perfect for ice cream sundaes and classic American desserts.
Ingredients
Scale
- 14 oz (396 g) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsps unsalted butter
- O Organic Ice Cream (for serving)
Instructions
- Preparation: Combine sweetened condensed milk and semi-sweet chocolate chips in a medium saucepan, positioning over medium-low heat.
- Melting Process: Whisk ingredients continuously, creating a smooth blend while preventing chocolate from burning and ensuring even heat distribution.
- Butter Integration: Incorporate unsalted butter into the chocolate mixture, stirring persistently until fully dissolved and seamlessly incorporated.
- Texture Development: Maintain gentle heat, stirring frequently to cultivate a rich, glossy consistency without overcooking; the sauce will naturally thicken during cooling.
- Finishing Touch: Remove saucepan from heat, allowing the hot fudge sauce to rest for 2-3 minutes, stabilizing its luxurious texture and intensity.
- Serving Suggestion: Lavishly drizzle the warm, silky hot fudge sauce over premium ice cream, transforming an ordinary dessert into an extraordinary culinary indulgence.
Notes
- Control Heat Carefully: Keep medium-low temperature to prevent chocolate from burning or separating, which can ruin the smooth texture of the sauce.
- Whisk Continuously: Constant stirring prevents scorching and ensures even melting, creating a glossy, uniform hot fudge sauce with perfect consistency.
- Watch Thickness Development: The sauce naturally thickens while cooling, so avoid overcooking to maintain its luxurious, pourable texture ideal for drizzling.
- Store Smartly: Cool completely before refrigerating in an airtight container; reheat gently using short microwave bursts or a water bath to restore original silky consistency.
