Ingredients:
- 3 oz unsweetened chocolate, cut into bits
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 Tbsp light corn syrup
Directions:
In a small, heavy saucepan, melt the chocolate and butter with the water
over moderately low heat, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Add the sugar
and corn syrup, and bring the mixture to a boil over moderate heat, stirring
until the sugar is dissolved. Cook the mixture at a slow boil for 8 minutes;
remove the pan from the heat, and stir in the salt and vanilla. Let the sauce
cool until it is warm before spooning it over ice cream. (The sauce will harden
on the ice cream.) Note: This sauce keeps well, covered and chilled, for up
to one month and can be reheated in a double boiler or microwave.
