Yeild: 3/4 cup
Beware: This sauce is a chocoholic’s temptation. Try this dense and sinfully rich Chocolate Sauce in a Chocolate-Covered Halvah Smoothie (see Ultimate Indulgences) and you’ll find yourself dreaming up ways to use it over and over again.
Place the corn syrup, 1 tablespoon heavy cream, and the oil in a heavy medium saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Using a wire whisk, add the chocolate and vanilla and stir until smooth. Gradually add the milk and remaining 1 tablespoon heavy cream and blend well. Allow the sauce to come to room temperature. When the Chocolate Sauce is cool, transfer it to a covered container and refrigerate for up to 4 weeks. (After the sauce has been refrigerated, it may be necessary to return it to its original consistency by heating it in the microwave for a minute or two.)
