List of Ingredients



• 2 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate
  
• 2 ounces semisweet chocolate
  
• 1 Tbsp butter
  
• 1/2 cup boiling water
  
• 2/3 cup sugar
  
• 2 Tbsp corn syrup
  
• 1 tsp vanilla
  






Instructions



1. In a double boiler over boiling water and medium-high heat, melt chocolate (about 6 to 8 minutes). Add butter and cook, stirring, until butter is melted (2 to 3 minutes). Blend well, then stir in 1/2 cup boiling water.
   
   
2. Stir in sugar and corn syrup, and bring to a light boil (do not stir). Let boil for 5 minutes.
   
   
3. Remove from heat, cool slightly, and stir in vanilla. Serve warm or cold. Store any leftover sauce in the refrigerator for up to a week, and reheat over hot water if too thick.
   
   Makes about 1 cup.
