By Hklbrries

Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup light corn syrup
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, finely chopped
• 5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Combine water, sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve. Off heat, add the cocoa, whisking well to combine. Add vanilla, and whisk until very smooth. Add chocolates, and let sit 3 minutes.

Stir the sauce until the chocolate is completely melted; it will have a smooth and glossy shine when it is ready. Serve warm, or let cool and refrigerate up to 2 months. To serve: Reheat, stirring, until warm and fluid.
