3-Minute Easy Chocolate Sauce

“A fellow foodie, Jane, tried out this recipe and used water instead of milk, and she said the resulting sauce is even better! I guess the milk make the sauce richer and thicker!” Jasline

Ingredients:

¼ cup best-quality cocoa powder

¼ cup caster sugar

½ cup water / milk

2 teaspoons unsalted butter, diced

Preparation:

Combine the cocoa powder, caster sugar and water or milk in a small pot.

Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking constantly to dissolve the sugar and cocoa 

powder.

Remove the pot from heat and stir in the butter.

Let the sauce cool before transferring it to a serving container.

The sauce will thicken slightly when cooled.

Keep the sauce covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Warm it up in the microwave or in a pot and whisk till smooth before using.

Notes:

Use the best quality cocoa powder you can find. I love Varlhona cocoa – it’s expensive, but 

worth every penny!

The resulting sauce is bitter-sweet, so if you like a sweeter sauce, add in more sugar while it’s 

still warm.

If you need the sauce urgently, place the pot in an ice water bath and stir till it’s cool.
