The Best Homemade Chocolate Dip

Ingredients

  • 250 grams dark chocolate, 66% to 72%, finely chopped
  • 200 grams refined coconut oil
  • 125 grams light corn syrup

Directions

Put the chocolate, oil, and corn syrup into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at half power in 15 second bursts, stirring with a spoon after each burst, repeating 3 to 4 times, until the chocolate has melted all the way. If the mixture gets overheated, it can separate and leave harmless brown flecks in the sauce; to bring it back together, blend it on high speed for 30 seconds. Pour the chocolate dip into a squeeze bottle or container, and keep it at room temperature, giving it a spoon-stir if it separates. For the best texture, wait 30 seconds after pouring it over ice cream before you dig in.
