How to Make Hot Fudge Sauce
- Combine 8 ounces of Baker's chocolate and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of unsalted butter in a large microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the butter is melted and the chocolate is softened. Stir until smooth and completely melted.
- Add 1/4 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of heavy whipping cream, and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar. Stir until well combined.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the mixture is thick and the sugar is completely dissolved (approximately 3-5 minutes total).
- Remove from microwave and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Let the sauce cool slightly before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This will allow it to thicken further.
- Reheat gently before serving, either in the microwave or on the stovetop over low heat.
