Calories 84kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup Sukrin Fiber Syrup Gold
- ½ cup low carb powdered sugar or Swerve
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2 ounces Lily's Sugar Free Chocolate Chips
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 tablespoon good quality Brandy I like V.S.O.P (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Put the first 5 ingredients in a small pot or sauce pan and cook on medium high until the mixture begins to boil vigorously. Turn the heat down to low and whisk the ingredients. They will bubble quite a bit. (if you are using an electric stove, you may need to move the pot off and on the heat to help manage temperature.)
- Adjust the heat to where is it bubbling quickly but not crawling up the sides of the pot. This will take a minute or two to get it right. Boil the mixture for 5 minutes then remove from the heat.
- Add the butter and whisk until melted. Add the chocolate chips, let them sit 1 minute, then whisk until completely dissolved. Add the vanilla and brandy, whisking until incorporated. (Makes about 1 ½ cups with 2 T per serving.)
Notes
Makes 1 ½ cups.
This hot fudge sauce is not very sweet. If one adds too much erythritol to a recipe, it tries to recrystallize and gets "crunchy". Make this as sweet as you like by adding more sweetener after all of the ingredients have been incorporated. Do not add too much stevia glycerite or the sauce will be bitter. If you don't mind using liquid sucralose, a few drops would be perfect!
