#Recommended #sauces & toppings

Equipment

pot
whisk

Instructions

  1. In a pot, pour in the sugar, oligosaccharide syrup, and cold water, and bring to a boil without stirring.
  2. Once the sugar dissolves, add the dark chocolate and butter.
  3. Simmer over medium heat, stirring, until the butter and chocolate melt.
  4. Once the chocolate and butter have fully melted, pour in the heavy cream a little at a time.
  5. Once the heavy cream is evenly mixed in, bring it to a boil until bubbles form, then transfer to a sterilized jar.

Tips

  • If refrigerated, it firms up. Let it sit at room temperature before using, or microwave it for about 30 seconds to soften it back into a pourable sauce.
  • Since it has no preservatives, it keeps for a short time — try to use it up quickly.
