2/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup Lyle’s Golden Syrup, or light corn syrup
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped, divided in half
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Recipe
Bring the cream, syrup, brown sugar, cocoa, salt and HALF the chocolate to a boil over medium-high heat in a 2-quart saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer LOW for about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Remove from heat and add the rest of the chocolate, the butter and the vanilla. Stir until smooth. Let cool for 20-30 minutes before using. You can also store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can reheat in the microwave 30 seconds to a minute.
