Hot Fudge Sauce

4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup cream or half and half
1/4 tsp. kosher salt...

1 teaspoon pure real vanilla extract

Whisk cocoa and sugar together well and put into a heavy saucepan. Add the chocolate and the butter and let them melt, stirring all to make a thick paste. Slowly add the cream, stirring constantly so that you have a smooth sauce. Add the salt. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly so it doesn't burn. Cook to desired consistency and remove from the heat. Stir in the vanilla and serve immediately. Makes about 1 1/2 cups of sauce.

You can store this sauce in the refrigerator. Reheat gently, stirring often before using.
