Ingredients
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate (at least 60 percent), finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
- In a 4-quart saucepan over moderate heat, bring the cream, corn syrup, sugar, salt and chocolate to a boil, stirring constantly. Simmer until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Serve while still warm.
- What Makes This Recipe Sing: The versatility of this sauce makes it the WOW hostess gift. Try with grilled fruit, over sponge cakes or even as a “no need for the fondue pot” chocolate dunk for fresh fruits, cookies and pound cakes. This sauce is a classic and of course perfect for your favorite ice cream… My choice is peppermint ice cream. Also, it makes for easily made s’mores and if all else fails, just use a good old-fashioned spoon!
- BYOC: Try adding a swirl, by heating peanut butter and swirling in the fudge. Add your favorite toasted nuts, a drop of peppermint or orange oil, or even your favorite cereal for a crunchy fudge sauce.

Reviews
Excellent! For the chocolate, I used semi-sweet mini morsels because that’s what I had on hand and it was the best! I served it over homemade vanilla ice cream and the sauce has that amazing chewy texture when it cools. So good!
This hot fudge sauce is awesome. Very easy to make and delicious to eat.
Quick to make and always a crowd pleaser. I’ve made this recipe many times and it never disappoints.
Best Hot Fudge EVER!
ok…i didnt have bittersweet chocolate. so used and even mix of unsweetened and semi sweet. after a taste test…my 8yr olds and i decided to use about double the sugar in the recipe. but its great!!! totally a hot chocolate fudge sauce.good recipe
Holy moly this is good. Nothing like the jar stuff!! I think the jarred hot fudge has an aftertaste, not this, just chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. It is such an easy dessert for entertaining that young and old appreciate. This, peanuts, whipped cream, cherries, and ice cream, and guests can make their own sundaes….no hassle and delicious. I make it the night before and heat gently over a double boiler to reheat. Guests go crazy for it. Sometimes it is the simple things that make people happy, I think we forget that way too often.
Easy and delicious! I used whte sugar and added a splash of vanilla at the end with the butter! :-
This is so absolutely delectable, no words could do it justice. No diet stands a chance with this hot fudge around. Do cook it until thickened. Mine took several minutes longer than suggested in the recipe.
This was really good and simple to fix. We are sweet eaters, so I added a little more sugar. Well worth your time!
