By GadgetGirl

It’s just as tasty without booze but only as good as the chocolate you use, so shop accordingly.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup light corn syrup
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate (about 70% cacao), chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Bring sugar, corn syrup, cocoa powder, and 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat and simmer until it begins to thicken, 10–12 minutes. Add chocolate, bourbon, and salt and return to a simmer, whisking.

Cook, whisking, until sauce is thick and glossy, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Do Ahead: Sauce can be made 1 week ahead. Let cool; cover and chill.
