HOT FUDGE SAUCE



Hot Fudge Sauce image

This recipe for a classic hot fudge sauce came to The Times in 2004, from Kay Rentschler. "A well-constructed homemade hot fudge sauce moves forward with dark smoky accents and arrives with plenty of chew," she wrote. Here, bittersweet chocolate and high-fat Dutch process cocoa bring that smokiness, while heavy cream, butter and sugar mellow it out. It's a perfect contrast to the milky sweetness of a sundae loaded with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream.

CLASSIC HOT FUDGE SUNDAE



Classic Hot Fudge Sundae image

There is a reason a hot fudge sundae is such an enduring classic: That combination of warm, rich chocolate fudge mixing with frozen ice cream and melting it slightly is absolutely irresistible. Of course, if you have homemade fudge sauce and homemade ice cream, it gets even better. Vanilla ice cream is the standard here, but feel free to use your favorite flavor, or a combination of flavors. And if you like nuts, by all means use them here. The added crunch is marvelous against all the rich creaminess.

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup light corn syrup or honey
3 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
7 ounces finely chopped bittersweet chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 tablespoon brandy or rum
1 cup chilled heavy cream
1 tablespoon superfine sugar, more to taste
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 pints your favorite flavor ice cream
Chopped toasted nuts, such as almonds, peanuts, or pecans (optional)
Cherries, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the cream, sugar, corn syrup or honey, cocoa, and salt to a simmer, whisking until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the chocolate and let cook until the chocolate melts. Stir in butter and vanilla or liquor. Let cool slightly. Contrary to its name, hot fudge is best served warm, not piping hot.
  • For assembly, make the whipped cream. Using a whisk or an electric mixer, beat the cream, sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
  • Pour a little fudge sauce into the bottoms of sundae dishes or bowls. Top with ice cream, then more hot fudge, then nuts if using. Cover all with whipped cream and a cherry if you like. Serve.

Categories     dessert

Time 15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder and salt. Place over medium heat and whisk to combine. Bring to a simmer, whisking often. Simmer for 5 minutes and remove from the heat. Whisk in the vanilla extract.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. Dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk instead. However, the sauce will be thinner.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chocolate. Overcooked chocolate is grainy and unpleasant.
  • To make a smoother sauce, strain it through a fine mesh sieve before serving.
  • Fondue sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently over low heat before serving.

Conclusion:

Fudge dessert fondue sauce is a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed with a variety of dippers. Whether you're looking for a sweet treat to serve at a party or a cozy dessert to share with loved ones, this sauce is sure to please.
