How to Make Awesome Hot Fudge Sauce

  1. In a 1-quart glass microwave-safe dish, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Microwave on medium power for 1 minute. Stir well to combine.
  3. Microwave for another minute, or until the sauce is heated through and smooth. Stir again after 30 seconds to prevent scorching.
  4. Remove from microwave and let cool slightly before serving over your favorite vanilla ice cream or dessert.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
