CHOCOLATE DIPPING SAUCE

Chocolate Dipping Sauce image

This is a great sauce for a fresh fruit dip, but also great over ice cream. This sauce thickens more as it cools. If it's too thick you can thin it with some milk or cream to the consistency you like.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups brown sugar
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup water
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk

In a medium saucepan, combine brown sugar, cocoa and flour. Stir in water, a little at a time, to make a smooth paste. Stir in milk and butter.
