Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine brown sugar, cocoa, and cornstarch in a large microwave-safe bowl (at least 2-cup capacity).
  2. Whisk the dry ingredients together thoroughly to break up any lumps and ensure even distribution.
  3. Gradually pour in the 1/2 cup and 3 tablespoons of boiling water while whisking continuously until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  4. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes, then stop and stir well to prevent overflow.
  5. Microwave for another 1-2 minutes on HIGH, watching closely as the sauce will bubble up significantly. Stop when it is thick and bubbling vigorously.
  6. Remove from the microwave carefully and immediately stir in the vanilla extract.
  7. Let the sauce cool for 1-2 minutes before serving warm over ice cream, cake, or fruit.
