Easy Homemade Chocolate Sauce

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/4 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, or more to taste
• 1 tiny pinch salt

Directions

Place sugar, flour, and cocoa powder into a bowl. Whisk together to remove lumps.

Heat milk, butter, and vanilla extract in a saucepan over medium heat until butter melts.

Whisk dry ingredients into the milk mixture a little at a time. Increase heat to medium-high until mixture comes to a simmer. Cook, stirring constantly, for 6 minutes. After 6 minutes, turn off heat. Whisk in a pinch of salt.

Pour hot over ice cream or store in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
