Ingredients

Instructions

  • Measure out equal weights of the ingredients - unsalted butter, brown sugar and double cream.
  • Put all three ingredients in a small saucepan. Heat on the stove top on a low heat, stirring constantly as the butter melts and sugar dissolves.
  • Simmer for a few minutes, stirring all the time until the sauce is thick and fudgy. Serve straight away.

Notes

Top tips for Three Ingredient Hot Fudge Sauce
  • This recipe is very scalable. If you need to make more, simply use equal weights of unsalted butter, brown sugar and double cream. 12.5 g of each per person is a generous portion.
  • Try using different sugars. For a lighter and fudgier sauce, use light brown sugar; for a deeper flavour, use dark brown. 
  • Any leftovers will keep for a couple of days in the fridge, sealed in a jar. Reheat gently to serve.
  • Don't just serve on ice cream! Spoon over an equally quick steamed pudding, over cheesecake or serve sandwiched into a cake.
  • For a really wicked treat, there's nothing quite like a spoonful of fudge sauce straight from the jar!
