8 servings
- ½ cup heavy cream
Chef's tipUse unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable. - ¼ cup water
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ tsp fine salt
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1
Whisk together the heavy cream, water, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt in a small saucepan until the cocoa is mostly dissolved and no large lumps remain.
- 2
Set the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking frequently, until the mixture comes to a gentle boil and the sugar is fully dissolved, about 4–5 minutes.
