It’s a perfect sauce for desserts, added into buttercreams, cupcakes and cakes. Or give as a homemade gift for a birthday, or just because!

You’re not going to believe it….it only takes 6 minutes to make and doesn’t require a thermometer or fancy pancy ways of creating it? Its just a simple creamy awesome treat that your tastebuds will thank you for!!

WHY THIS SALTED CARAMEL SAUCE IS PERFECTION!

Its perfection because of its versatility to achieve so many ways to utilize itself in recipes, desserts, gifts and even milkshakes! Other than just eating it straight from the jar (which I’ve been known to do on occasion!) take a look below for some interesting other ways to implement your sauce.

SIMPLICITY

This recipe is very elementary. With only 5 ingredients and only 6 minutes to cook, you’ll be indulging before you know it! The simple ingredients are, butter, brown sugar, golden syrup, cream and flaky salt!

FROSTINGS & ICE CREAMS

I love to add this salty yet sweet sauce into my frostings, buttercream and ice creams. It will elevate the flavors and bring new depths of aroma to your buttercreams & ice creams. Try it for yourself.

FLAKY SALT

Getting the right flaky salt is extremely important…. why you ask? Because if you use the good old table salt, you’re going to get a very different salty taste than if you’d had added in a good quality flaky salt. A good quality flaky salt will add acidity and help bring the sweetness in together as a sweet harmony! I use Maldon Flaky Sea Salt.

DESSERT

Desserts are another great way to maximize your salted caramel experience. Simply pour the hot sauce over bananas, brownies or your favorite ice cream! YUMMO!!

GIFTS 

For a great gift idea simply pour the salted caramel into sterilised jar, allow to cool, then wrap with pretty ribbon and give as a gift to someone special. Attach a little note saying “An ideal accompaniment to ice cream, desserts and cakes”.

CHILLING

If you manage to keep your salted caramel in the fridge for more than 2 minutes hehehe, then you can chill it for several weeks before it needs to be eaten up.

MILKSHAKES

You can’t beat a good salted caramel milkshake! Add 1 tablespoon of salted caramel into your milkshake with a scoop of ice cream and teaspoon of peanut butter….oh my word, that’s too good!!!

CUPCAKES AND CAKES

Utilise your salted caramel even more, but spreading it over layers of your favourite Cakes or filling your Cupcake cavities with giant spoonfuls of yummy gooey-ness!! Arrrgghhh I’m so hungry!!

Well folks I think we can all confess that we’re drooling all over the place right now and dreaming of the creamiest, most decadent, gooey salted caramel sauce going straight into our mouths!! 

So, without going on anymore, go get some!

This hot fudge sauce has only 3 ingredients and takes only minutes to make! You will be tempted to eat it before it reaches the dessert! And you will never have to purchase a store-bought chocolate sauce ever again!

It can be kept in the fridge for several weeks and simply heat in the microwave to serve. You can turn it into a ganache for cakes and cupcakes, or into truffles for a decadent treat!

Whatever you choose to do with this hot fudge sauce, know this, this will elevate your desserts to new and greater levels!

WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE IN HOMEMADE HOT FUDGE SAUCE?

Only 3 ingredients, chocolate, cream and butter, it’s really very simple!

HOW TO MAKE HOT FUDGE SAUCE?

1. Simply add all ingredients into a small pot on the stove and gently heat.

2. Then whisk the melted ingredients together to form a velvety rich chocolate fudge sauce.

There’s no secret to this, it’s just plain old delicious and easy!!

WHY IS THIS THE PERFECT HOT FUDGE SAUCE?

1. TEACUP ICE CREAM SUNDAES

For something a little fancy, scoop your favorite ice cream into pretty little teacups and pour over the hot fudge sauce for an easy yet eye-catching pretty dessert for your guests.

2. GANACHE

Let the chocolate cool completely before putting in the fridge to set. Once set you can spread over chocolate cakes or fill cupcake craters or pipe onto cupcakes. You may need to let it come back to room temperature before piping and spreading can occur.

3. SAUCE

Ideal to pour over my fav, boysenberry ice cream or vanilla is another perfect combination. Or it can be refrigerated and then microwaved to re-use later.

4. TRUFFLES

Make the perfect chocolate truffles for an after-dinner treat! Let the chocolate sauce cool completely then allowing to set in the fridge, preferably overnight. Then remove and roll into truffles balls rolling them in Dutch cocoa and leaving in the fridge until your guests arrive.

5. GIFT GIVING

Pour into a jar and allow to completely cook. Then wrap with pretty ribbon around the jar and give as a gift with a little note attached saying “Ideal accompaniment to ice cream, desserts and cakes”.

Can we all agree that this is the best hot fudge sauce in town. Easy, quick and reliable. But most of all chocolatey fudgy and completely decadent! Go for it my friends!
