Dark Hot Fudge Sauce

 Dark chocolate hot Fudge Sauce.....absolutely  precarious for everyone who loves chocolate. I know I've posted this before, but each time it comes out a little differently. Kind of like those chocolate chp cookies. Made this again, this week, because we had company. Couldn't think of anything but chocolate. So made it fresh, right in front of company, scooped out a quantity of plain vanilla ice cream, or yogurt, depending on what each person preferred, then  ceremoniously drizzled Hot Fudge sauce languidly over  it all, and then we watched while it swirled and eddied into melted pools of chocolate and vanilla........ Got you hooked, yet......?

INGREDIENTS: 2/3 cup cocoa, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup corn syrup,  2/3 milk or cream, plus a tad more for good measure ( it tends to be overly  thick), splash in a tablespoon of wine/whiskey/sherry to give it an added ounce of flavour.  But not much...it is good on its own. 

METHOD: Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, or it will burn. Eventualy, the mixture will bubble and burp its way to success, and end up looking thick like treacle. Do not boil this. Just reach the hard bubble stage, take off the heat, and serve at once. Great for last minute.......
