How To Make hot chocolate sauce for ice cream (old recipe)

  • Step 1
    Melt the chocolate in a sauce pan on very low heat Note: 6 Tablespoons of Cocoa + 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil = 2 1-oz squares of baking chocolate -- just in case you need it
  • Step 2
    Add the boiling water to the sugar and dissolve
  • Step 3
    Add the water/sugar S-L-O-W-L-Y to the melted chocolate and bring to boil stirring constantly
  • Step 4
    Mix the cornstarch with the Tbsp of cold water, then when the chocolate reaches the boiling point add the cornstarch S-L-O-W-L-Y to it then: boil for seven minutes (keeping a watchful eye and stirring as needed)
  • Step 5
    add the vanilla and serve hot on ice cream
  • Step 6
    I was wondering if I used milk (or evaporated milk) instead of water if it might add a nice flavor to the sauce and make it more like chocolate fudge sauce -- this would require a watchful eye because milk can burn -- just thinking
