Easy Chocolate Peanut Butter Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup water
2 cups sugar
1 cup sifted unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

Preparation

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring 1 cup water to a boil.
Whisk in cocoa powder and sugar; cook whisking constantly until the mixture forms bubbles around the edges of the pan.
Simmer until sauce thickens slighty, whisking constantly (this should take about 3-4 minutes).
Reduce heat to low and whisk in peanut butter; simmer until sauce thickens and is smooth (another 3 minutes longer).
Remove from heat and add in vanilla; cool slightly.
If not using immediately, cool completely and transfer to a glass bowl, cover and refrigerate.
Just rewarm slightly before using.
