The secret in this sauce is to whip it up in a blender. Not only does beating it improve the texture, adding air to food, anything from carbonated beverages to whipped cream, always makes it taste better.
Ingredients
2 sticks of butter
⅓ to ½ cup cocoa powder (Be sure to use a better-quality cocoa powder like Ghirardelli.)
2½ cups sugar
1 can of evaporated milk (12 ounces)
1 teaspoon vanilla
A pinch of salt
Instructions
In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the butter, cocoa, sugar, and evaporated milk.
Bring the mixture to a boil and let it boil for 6 to 8 minutes.
Add the vanilla. Pour the mixture into a blender and blend it for about 3 minutes.
It is best served immediately, but after cooling it, it can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated right before using.
Notes
A jar of this yummy stuff makes a great gift, especially when it’s tied with a cute ribbon.
