Chocolate Sauce

This is a fantastic ‘from scratch’ chocolate sauce recipe. It’s really easy to make and tastes fantastic! Works beautifully drizzled over ice-cream like I have done in the pic or poured over puddings or brownies, or it can be made thicker and used to coat cakes too. You can also use the sauce to make a fantastic chocolate shake.
