Ice Cream Sundays.......

What do make for dessert when the oven is broken.........mmmmmmmm, yummy........how about classic vanilla ice cream with hot chocolate sauce ( homemade) drowning over the side......maybe we can just live on these, and never get the oven fixed. Now THERE'S an idea....... I think this hot chocolate sauce is the best. Not too sweet, full dark chocolate flavour, and doesn't seem to last long.

Dark Chocolate Sauce

2/3 cup cocoa
2/3  or more, skim milk, or water
Tablespoon or so of brandy/sherry/whiskey ( if you have it on hand)(This goes INTO the mixture, not into you!)
1/2 cup brown sugar plus 2 tblsp.
1 tsp vanilla
pinch salt
1/4 cup corn syrup

Cook in saucepan on top of stove, stirring the ENTIRE time, or the concoction may burn, will it becomes bubbly. Immediately , take off stove and pour into glass container with lid and let cool. or use right away. Can be heated up in microwave  for later use. Store in fridge.
