Picture this: warm, gooey chocolate fudge sliding down the side of a mountain of ice cream with the faint aroma of vanilla. Are you salivating? Because you should be! Homemade chocolate fudge sauce guarantees a smooth texture and quality taste. Never buy fudge sauce from the store again, because you can whip up this delicious recipe in 15 minutes.
Things You’ll Need
-
½ cup (1 stick) salted butter
-
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
-
12-oz can evaporated milk, (1)
-
2½ cups powdered sugar
-
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
-
½ tablespoon vanilla extract
Step 1: Heat Butter and Chocolate
In a large saucepan, melt butter and chocolate chips over low heat, about 5 minutes. Add evaporated milk and mix well.
Step 2: Sift Powdered Sugar and Boil
Add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder to a sifter. Sift a third of powdered sugar at a time, whisking in between to make sure the sauce is smooth. Bring to a boil of medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat, mix in vanilla, and pour into a container. Serve warm. Keeps in refrigerator up to a month.
Tip
To reheat: Place the desired amount in a heatproof bowl over a sauce pan of simmering water. Stir constantly for about 5 minutes until fudge is smooth and warm. OR, microwave the sauce in 10-second increments, stirring in-between, until it is smooth and warm.
