  • • 1⁄2 cup sugar
  • • 1⁄4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • • 3.5 oz. dark chocolate chopped
  • • 4 tsp cornstarch

  • • 2 tsp vanilla
  • • 1⁄4 tsp salt
  • • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

  • In a saucepan, whisk together the milk, sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, egg yolks, vanilla, and salt. Cook over medium-high heat whisking constantly, until the mixture comes to a simmer. Add the chocolate and butter.
  • While continuing to constantly whisk, bring to a full boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, and continue whisking until thick, about 2 or 3 minutes more.
