Ingredients

  • 5 ounce semi sweet chocolate (56%)
  • 3 ounce unsweetened chocolate
  • 3 cup sugar
  • 3 cup milk
  • 2 cup cream
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Preparation

Baking Directions:

In a saucepan bring to a simmer the milk, cream and vanilla.

Set aside.

In a larger pan, place 2 cups of sugar.

Add 2 Tablespoons of water to it and stir it so that all the sugar is wet.

Place it on medium heat.

Cover the pan, and let it dissolve completely.

Once it has dissolved, take the cover off.

Let the sugar caramelize to a dark amber color.

Once it has caramelized, turn off the heat.

Slowly add the warm milk mixture.

Be careful to not pour too fast otherwise it may bubble too much and could boil over.

Once all has dissolved add the rest of the sugar and place it back onto the heat.

Stir it until all the sugar has dissolved.

While sugar is dissolving, chop all the chocolate.

Once the milk is hot and the sugar is dissolved add the chocolate and turn off the heat.

Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow melting.

Stir well and serve hot.

Serving Directions:

If you want to make it a day ahead you can.

Cool it down completely and refrigerate.

When ready to serve, heat it up gently in a saucepan on low heat or else it may burn.

Or if you want you can even reheat it in the microwave.
