Description
An easy-to-whip-up topping for ice cream, cake, or to eat by the spoonful
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cocoa (either milk or dark)
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick, cut into pieces)
- 1/4 cup Kahlua
- 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine the dry ingredients (cocoa, sugars, and salt) in a medium sauce pan. Over medium-low heat, pour in the cream and bring to a low boil, stirring constantly.
- Stir in butter chunks, and allow to boil for 1 minute.
- Carefully add Kahlua and vanilla, and heat just until it begins to boil again. Then remove from heat.
- Serve creatively, and with an extra spoonful just for fun.
Notes
The sauce thickens when chilled, and resembles frosting – perfect for spreading on graham crackers! Just a quick warm-up in the micro returns it to pourable deliciousness.
