Chocolate sauce is an unbeatable classic that brings a delicious and comforting touch to all ice creams. Whether you use it as a topping on vanilla, strawberry or even chocolate ice cream (yes, chocolate on chocolate is always a good idea!), this sauce will take your dessert to the next level. The best? It's super simple to make and you can prepare it in just a few minutes.
Ingredients :
- 100 g dark chocolate (50% cocoa for an intense flavor)
- 150 ml of whole liquid cream
- 1 tablespoon of sugar (optional, to your taste)
- 1 tablespoon of butter (for a shiny texture)
Preparation :
- Heat the cream
In a small saucepan, heat the liquid cream over low heat. When small bubbles begin to appear around the edges (without the cream boiling), remove the pan from the heat. - Add the chocolate
Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and add it to the hot cream. Leave for 1 to 2 minutes so that the chocolate begins to melt, then mix gently until you obtain a smooth and shiny sauce. - Add the butter and sugar.
Incorporate the butter into the sauce to obtain an even smoother and glossier texture. If you like a slightly sweeter chocolate sauce, now is the time to add the tablespoon of sugar. Mix well so that everything is perfectly integrated. - Leave to cool
Let cool slightly before pouring it over your ice cream. The sauce will thicken a little as it cools, but it should remain fluid enough to easily coat your desserts. - Store the sauce
If you are not using it immediately, you can store this chocolate sauce in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for about a week. You just need to reheat it for a few seconds in the microwave or in a bain-marie for it to regain its fluidity.
