Homemade chocolate sauce is so much easier to make than you might think, and with just three ingredients (plus a pinch of salt) your ice cream, cheesecake, fruit fondue, or even chocolate cake will be dripping in chocolatey goodness in no time.

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces Private Selection bittersweet chocolate chunks 62% cacao
  • ¼ cup light corn syrup
  • ¾ to 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • Pinch of kosher salt

Instructions

  • Add the bittersweet chocolate chunks to a small saucepan with the light corn syrup and warm over medium-low heat. Stir often until the chocolate melts and becomes smooth, about 5 minutes. Add a pinch of kosher salt, stir well, then remove from the heat.
  • Whisk ¾ cup of the whipping cream into the chocolate until smooth, adding more whipping cream until you achieve the desired consistency. Serve warm over ice cream. Refrigerate for 3-4 weeks.

Notes

I use bittersweet chocolate chunks found in the baking aisle for a super rich chocolatey taste, or use semi-sweet chocolate chips instead.
