CONDENSED MILK CHOCOLATE SAUCE

CONDENSED MILK CHOCOLATE SAUCE

Awesome, creamy and rich milk (not dark) chocolate sauce to top frozen yogurt or ice cream or other lovely desserts such as cake or pie or cheesecake!  You name it.  I like to eat it by the spoonful. ;)

¹/₃  cup boiling water (75 mL)

2 tbsp unsalted butter (30 mL)

2 tbsp regular butter (30 mL)

1 cup whole milk powder, OR (250 mL)

  skim milk powder, OR coconut milk powder, OR
  heavy cream powder (least carbs) - check Walmart or Amazon

Liquid sweetener to equal ³/₄  cup sugar (175 mL)

¹/₂  cup whipping cream (125 mL)

¹/₃  cup powdered sweetener (75 mL)

¹/₃  cup Hershey's cocoa (75 mL)

1 tbsp cold water (15 mL)

¹/₂  tsp unflavored gelatin (generic store bought) (2 mL)

¹/₃  cup boiling water (75 mL)

¹/₂  tsp vanilla extract (2 mL)

In food processor, combine boiling water, unsalted butter, regular butter, whole milk powder, OR skim milk powder, OR coconut milk powder, OR heavy cream powder, liquid sweetener, whipping cream, powdered sweetener and cocoa; process.

In small bowl, place cold water and stir in gelatin.  Allow to soften for a minute or so and then stir in the boiling water to dissolve the gelatin.  Add to the food processor along with vanilla extract; process.  Serve right away.

Helpful Hints:  This is best served at room temperature right away.  It will thicken in the refrigerator - still a very yummy treat (nothing will go to waste, believe me!).  You can gently reheat it, however, the texture may be compromised.
