How to Make Chocolate Truffle Sauce

  1. Combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter and 1 cup heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. Heat gently, stirring occasionally, until the cream is hot and the butter is completely melted. Do not boil.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  4. Add 8 ounces (227g) of high-quality dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces. Let it sit for about 30 seconds to soften in the warm cream.
  5. Add 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously until the sauce is completely smooth and all the chocolate is melted and incorporated.
  6. Serve immediately or let cool slightly for a thicker consistency.
