Ben and Jerry's Hot Fudge Sauce

I have developed a serious addiction to my own version of Ben & Jerrys Brownie Sundae. For me it works best with brownie, loads of fudge sauce, a bucket of whipped cream and then another wad of hot fudge sauce.

I was thrilled to find the recipe for the fudge sauce online, and now I also know why its so delicious. No condensed milk here  just real good chocolate flavor combined with cream. Like my grandmother used to say, whats not to like?

• 4 tbsp. good chocolate (I use Valrhona 54%)
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 cup (scant) cocoa
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup cream

Melt the chocolate and butter in a thick-bottomed pan over low heat. Add cocoa and whisk until smooth. Mixture will be thick. Add sugar and combine well. Mixture will be very thick. Cook over very low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cream gradually and whisk until smooth. Its ready, and its delicious!
