Hot Fudge Recipe

4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped

5.5 ounces white sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Place chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and cook on high 1 to 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until mostly melted. Transfer to a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat and stir in sugar, salt and butter. Stir in cream, a little at a time, until smooth. Heat through, without boiling, then remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Store in refrigerator.
