I love the shine and consistency of this sauce. As it boils, the water reduces and turns it into a lovely, thick rich sauce worthy of drizzling over many desserts. It is a little bitter, so I added 1/4 cup more corn syrup, 1 tsp. instant espresso powder, and an extra 1 tsp. vanilla. It would also be good with 1 Tbsp. Grand Marnier.

INGREDIENTS
8 oz. chopped, unsweetened chocolate1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
8 tbsp. unsalted butter
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
¼ tsp. kosher salt
1⅓ cups water
INSTRUCTIONS
In a 2-qt. saucepan, combine all ingredients. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens and becomes smooth and shiny, about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving, or transfer to a glass jar with a lid and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Before serving, reheat sauce in a saucepan over low heat or in a bowl in the microwave for about 30 seconds, as it will thicken when refrigerated.See the recipe for Wet Nuts »
