Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • These melt beautifully and deliver that deep balanced chocolate flavor without overpowering sweetness.
1/2 cup marshmallow creme
  • Also known as marshmallow fluff this is the secret to that creamy, sticky-sweet finish that sets this sauce apart.
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • It adds richness and a touch of caramel-like sweetness that ties the whole sauce together.
1/4 cup heavy cream
  • For a luscious pourable texture that coats ice cream or fruit perfectly.
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Adds silky smoothness and helps blend the flavors into one dreamy sauce.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Just a splash enhances both the chocolate and marshmallow bringing depth and warmth.
Optional Add-Ins (for extra flair):
  • Pinch of sea salt – to balance the sweetness and bring out the chocolate notes.
  • 1/2 teaspoon espresso powder – intensifies the chocolate richness without tasting like coffee.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
    Set up your workspace.
    1. Grab a medium saucepan and place it over low to medium heat. Low and slow is the secret here—chocolate doesn’t like to be rushed.
    Melt the butter and chocolate.
    1. Add the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips to the pan. Stir continuously until everything is silky smooth and fully melted. This forms the rich, chocolatey base.
    Stir in the condensed milk and cream.
    1. Slowly pour in the sweetened condensed milk and heavy cream, stirring as you go. Keep the heat gentle to avoid scorching. The sauce should start to look thick, glossy, and luscious.
    Add the marshmallow magic.
    1. Fold in the marshmallow creme and stir until completely melted and blended. It’ll take on a dreamy, cloud-like texture—this is where that signature stretch and sweetness kicks in.
    Finish with flavor.
    1. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. If using sea salt or espresso powder, now’s the time to add them.
    Cool slightly before serving.
    1. Let the sauce cool for 5–10 minutes to thicken just enough for perfect drizzling. Then, pour it over everything in sight!
    Pro Cooking Tips:
    1. Avoid high heat — chocolate can seize or burn quickly. Keep it low and stir often.
    2. Make it thicker by adding a bit more marshmallow creme or reducing the cream slightly.
    3. Too thick? Just whisk in a splash of warm milk to thin it back out.
