Fudge Sauce
- 30 g 72% chocolate, chopped (1 ounce)
- 18 g cocoa powder, preferably Valrhona (2 tablespoons)
- 0.5 g kosher salt (1/8 teaspoon)
- 100 g glucose (1/4 cup)
- 25 g sugar (2 tablespoons)
- 55 g heavy cream (1/4 cup)
- Combine the chocolate, cocoa powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Combine the glucose, sugar, and heavy cream in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and stir intermittently while bringing to a boil over high heat.
- The moment it boils, pour it into the bowl holding the chocolate.
- Let sit for 1 full minute.
- Slowly, slowly begin to whisk the mixture.
- Then continue, increasing the vigor of your whisking every 30 seconds, until the mixture is glossy and silky-smooth.
- This will take 2 to 4 minutes, depending on your speed and strength.
- You can use the sauce at this point or store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks; do not freeze.
- Our fudge sauce tastes just as good hot as it does cold.
- Simply warm it in the microwave on low in 30-second increments for 2 minutes.
- Stir the sauce between blasts.
- It tastes really good drizzled over Cereal Milk Ice Cream (page 38).
- Or any ice cream, for that matter.
- My mother approves.
- In a pinch, substitute 35 g (2 tablespoons) corn syrup for the glucose.
- Fudge sauce is used for a fancier presentation of the Brownie Pie (page 124).
