Instructions
- Stir cream and butter in heavy 1-quart saucepan over medium heat until butter has melted and cream has come to a low boil.
- Add both sugars and stir until they dissolve—no graininess should remain in the mixture.
- Reduce heat to low. Add salt and coca; stir briskly with small wire whisk until smooth. When sauce is completely smooth, remove from heat.
- Drizzle over ice cream, pound cake, strawberries or anything that needs a chocolate boost! (If you need to reheat it, you may need to add a bit of hot water, a few drops at a time).
