Van Leeuwen Hot Fudge Sauce

Directions

1 Wash hands with soap and water.
2 In a small saucepan set over low heat, combine the sugar with butter and let butter melt.
3 Add the chocolate and, stirring from time to time, let it melt and incorporate into the butter-sugar mixture. Stir in cocoa powder and salt until fully incorporated.
4 Remove the sauce from heat and slowly whisk in heavy cream until fully incorporated – the chocolate sauce will be smooth and shiny.  Use immediately or cover and refrigerate until needed.
5 The sauce will keep, refrigerated, for up to 2 weeks. To rewarm, gently microwave a few seconds at time, or place in a saucepan over very low heat.
