"This has been adapted from Silver Palate Cookbook and it is delicious! This thick dark chocolate fudgy sauce firms up on ice cream, and is great for making Hot Fudge Sundaes, and so much cheaper than buying it. You can make this ahead, and store in the refrigerator. When ready to use just reheat in the microwave in a glass bowl for 15-30 seconds to heat it up. Stir well and serve over your favorite ice cream, cake or whatever suits your fancy."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Melt chocolate and butter very slowly in a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring frequently until combined.

In the meantime, heat water to boiling in the small, heavy saucepan.
Step 3
When the butter and chocolate melt, stir the mixture into the boiling water.
Step 4
Add sugar, corn syrup and salt, and mix until smooth.
Step 5
Turn the heat up and stir until mixture starts to boil, adjusting the heat so that sauce is just at the boiling point, stirring occasionally. Allow sauce to boil for 9 minutes.

Remove from heat and cool for 15 minutes.

Stir in the vanilla (or the liquor flavoring of your choice), and serve warm over your favorite ice cream or dessert.
