Chocolate Sauce (for Cake Toppings)

This is a simple and quick recipe to make some nice and syrupy chocolate sauce. You can use this recipe when you need to pout chocolate glaze over a cake  like Boston Cream Pie or any other dessert.

If not anything else, you can serve it on top of plain vanilla ice-cream and serve as a dessert, or use a spoonful in a glass of milk and give to your babies!!! They will surely like it....

All that I used : 
(Makes 1 cup sauce, enough for topping up 1 cake)
  • Unsweetened Cocoa Powder - 3 Tbsp
  • Butter - 2 Tbsp
  • Powdered sugar - 1 cup
  • Water - about 3 Tbsp
  • Vanilla extract - 1/2 tsp

How I made it :
  • Take a non-stick saucepan and put it n medium heat.
  • Put the water and butter in it. Mix it well and bring it to a boil.
  • Give it about 2 minutes then remove from heat. 
  • Now add in the unsweetened cocoa powder (I used Hershey's). Mix well, making sure to remove lumps, if any.
  • Now add the powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar) and the vanilla extract.
  • Mix it all very well so that it is a smooth sauce.
  • Let it cool and then use it as you like.
