Hot Fudgecaramel Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the cream, sugar, corn syrup or honey, cocoa, and salt to a simmer, whisking until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the chocolate and let cook until the chocolate melts. Stir in butter and vanilla or liquor. Let cool slightly. Contrary to its name, hot fudge is best served warm, not piping hot.
• For assembly, make the whipped cream. Using a whisk or an electric mixer, beat the cream, sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
• Pour a little fudge sauce into the bottoms of sundae dishes or bowls. Top with ice cream, then more hot fudge, then nuts if using. Cover all with whipped cream and a cherry if you like. Serve.

Steps:

• Put the sugar, corn syrup, and water in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, brushing down the sides of the pan as needed with water, until the sugar dissolves. Continue to cook, swirling the pan but not stirring, until the sugar is amber in color, about 8 minutes. Pull pan from the heat and carefully add the cream and butter. Take care; it may spatter. Whisk until smooth.
• Stir the chocolate, vanilla, and salt into the hot caramel until smooth. Serve sauce warm.
• Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat slowly, in a microwave at 30-second intervals, stirring, until warm and saucy. Be careful not to overheat or butter can separate from the caramel sauce.
