Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate
- 150 milliliters heavy cream
- 20 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Chop the dark chocolate into small, even pieces and place in a heatproof bowl.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Step 3
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Let sit for 1 minute to allow the chocolate to begin melting.
Step 4
Using a spatula or whisk, gently stir the mixture until the chocolate and cream combine into a smooth, glossy sauce.
Step 5
Add the unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the mixture. Continue stirring until the butter is fully melted and incorporated.
Step 6
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving. It will thicken as it cools.
Step 7
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently if needed.
