- 150 g double cream
- 150 g 70% dark chocolate chips
- 50 g coconut oil
- 3 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon salt
Pour the cream into a small saucepan, followed by the rest of the ingredients.
Heat over a low heat until the cream is just hot enough to the touch. The chocolate will have started to melt but still be in little lumps.
Take off the heat and stir vigorously until all the chocolate has melted.
Serve immediately over ice cream.
- The salt used here is kosher salt which isn't as harsh tasting as table salt. Use sea salt if you can't find it.
- The cream is added first so the chocolate isn’t resting on the bottom of the saucepan.
- The heat should be set low.
- Stir the sauce continually.
- Remove the sauce from the heat before the chocolate has completely melted, keep stirring off the heat until the sauce is thick smooth and glossy.
