1heaping tablespoon(8g) cocoa powder
1tablespoon(14g) salted butter*
2tablespoonsmilkany percentage
1/8teaspoonvanilla extract
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine sugar and cocoa powder. Stir together and set aside.
In a small saucepan, over medium heat, melt butter. Whisk in milk followed by the sugar and cocoa powder mixture. Whisk continuously, beating out any lumps as they form, until mixture begins to thicken and bubble 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and continue whisking for about 30 seconds to cool the sauce slightly before whisking in the vanilla. Allow to sit and thicken for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve over ice cream, brownies, or pancakes and enjoy!
Notes
*If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt. You can store the prepared sauce in the fridge in an airtight container for up to one week.It will become solid as it cools, but will return to its smooth, pourable state with 10 to 20 seconds in the microwave and a couple good stirs.
