This delicious chocolate sauce is appreciated all at home!
In the past I used to make chocolate sauce now Akanksha has taken over and she adds a lot of dark chocolate to the mixture in addition to cocoa.
Chocolate Sauce
Since she claims to be lactose sensitive there is no cream used but milk is okay! Yes please figure it out and let me know too! But I am glad at least I don’t have to stock up on cream packs.
For those who don’t know, a chocolate sauce is a condiment that is sweet and chocolate-flavored. Chocolate sauce is used as a topping, a dessert sauce for desserts. Think ice cream with chocolate sauce, milkshake where the sauce, ice, cream/ice-cream, milk is blended. Topping for cakes, cheesecakes also use this delicious sauce.
Though you get quite a few readymade once in the market I wanted to record what Akanksha does. It is her snack sometimes I think she likes the pep it gives.
So let us make the sauce the main ingredients of which are cocoa powder, chocolate actually cream is preferred choice but I have used milk.
I have used Malaysian Cocoa Powder and so my sauce is dark.
We enjoyed our Chocolate Sauce with ice cream and Brownie Cupcake.

Home made chocolate sauce is the best. Yummy. I too cannot figure out the lactose intolerance issue with my son! His is the other way, no milk but other dairy products are fine!

with hershey's syrup coming in, i have stopped making this, but i still like this sauce as u can control the sugar and the quality of cocoa powder and for the fact it is always reasonable to prepare in batches rather than finish down the bottle
