This scrumptious recipe is comparable to one shared by my pal Cathy years back whenever we were serving hot fudge sundaes to some big group. Through the years I have tweaked the recipe a little. It's another family favorite that's fast and easy to create.
A thing about corn syrup.
One thing which makes this fudge sauce so satisfying is it's smooth-as-velvet texture. That level of smoothness and shine originates from corn syrup. I understand so many people are trying to not eat just as much corn syrup, but make certain you do not confuse this using the high fructose corn syrup that has developed in the news a great deal recently. Light corn syrup (the Karo kind) isn't any worse for you personally than sugar. That does not get this to health food. It is a splurge in whatever way your perception.
David Lebovitz has good quality details about using corn syrup in recipes, in situation you are interested.
Agave nectar syrup is really a tasty substitute.
You are able to substitute agave syrup for that corn syrup within this recipe although you do not need just as much since its taste is significantly sweeter than sugar. Agave includes a basic taste and is an extremely good substitute within this fudge sauce if you like to not use corn syrup.
Honey is definitely an optional substitute.
You are able to substitute honey for that corn syrup within this recipe, although you do not need just as much--honey is a lot sweeter than corn syrup. However, it'll provide the sauce a unique honey taste. It's dependent on individual taste whether this is a good or perhaps a bad factor. I favor the corn syrup and agave syrup versions the honey version differs, but nonetheless good. For me anyway. The recipe includes both versions, so that you can choose.
Instant espresso or coffee granules--the key component.
Ina Garten. my personal favorite Food Network chef, recommends instant espresso or coffee like a secret component in lots of of her chocolate recipes. A tiny bit of instant espresso/coffee intensifies the chocolate flavor without imparting an espresso taste. Since learning that tip from her, I have added just a little instant espresso for this Fudge Sauce recipe. I am a believer--tastes so wealthy and good. King Arthur Flour Company also recommends enhancing chocolate baked goods in this manner.
