Instructions
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt together the butter and sugar until smooth.
Add the milk, cocoa and flour and whisk well. Bring to a low simmer, continuing to whisk for a couple of minutes until it starts to thicken.
Once it's thick, smooth and glossy it's ready.
Notes
Feel free to use plain unsweetened cocoa
I use a standard Australian 20ml tablespoon (4 teaspoons worldwide)
For best results you should always weigh ingredients like flour and sugar. Kitchen scales are relatively cheap but if you can’t weigh the ingredients, use the spoon and level method (don’t scoop).
I store my sauces in these squeeze bottles in the fridge. These small weck jars are also really good.
