Ghirardelli's Hot Fudge Sauce

I love the chewiness of this sauce. Mmm!! Just like in the fountain shop. Tasty on ice cream or with crepes.

1/2 bar (2 oz) of bittersweet chocolate baking bar (or regular chocolate with 1/4 C sugar)
2 T butter
1/3 C sugar
1/4 C water
1/4 C light corn syrup
1/2 t vanilla extract

Combine all except vanilla. Stir continuously on low heat until all is melted. When it comes to a low boil, lower heat continue to simmer for 10 minutes

Remove thickened sauce, stir in vanilla, let cool. Store covered in the fridge, but definitely warm up a little before serving!

Makes about 1 Cup, which is more than enough for 12 people
