10 Minute Chocolate Fudge Sauce

This is a real old fashioned, cocoa based, fudge sauce made from just a few simple ingredients. It makes a thick, indulgent addition to ice cream sundaes and other desserts.

To me a fudge sauce should be on the thick side and not thin and watery. Store the sauce in the fridge and warm it up a little at a time for hot fudge sundaes too.

Take a look at the few seconds of video in this post to see this glossy, beautiful, thick sauce at room temperature being poured onto my homemade Cappuccino Ice Cream. It’s a thing of beauty.

This is a real old fashioned cocoa based chocolate fudge sauce made from just a few simple ingredients for a thick, indulgent addition to ice cream sundaes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups white sugar
  • ¾ cup sifted cocoa
  • pinch salt
  • ½ cup corn syrup

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a medium sized saucepan, stir all of the ingredients together.
