ingredients

  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened), finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

directions

Bring cream, corn syrup, sugar, cocoa, salt, and half of chocolate to a boil in a 1 quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until chocolate is melted. Reduce heat and cook at a low boil, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Add butter, vanilla, and remaining chocolate and stir until smooth. Cool sauce to warm before serving.

Sauce can be made 1 week ahead and cooled completely, then chilled in an airtight container or jar. Reheat before using.
