The sauce came out so nice and smooth and the dark chocolate really comes through. My daughter tried it over a crisp waffle topped with marshmallow fluff and as quoted “it doesn’t get any better than this”. Made tasty fluff and chocolate sandwiches as well. Because I made a full batch, planning on using it also as a filling between cake layers for Christmas. Thank you, ellie, for sharing. Made it “For your Consideration” tag game.

I actually used a microwave for the first 2 steps, which worked well. Very similar to another spread ~ this was wonderful on pancakes, crumpets and even was lovely as a cake filling. Chocolatey rich, soft and creamy with just a bitter hint from the dark chocolate, this spread disappeared in no time here. I would really like to try the hazelnut option next time.
