If you are concerned about the amount of sugar in the Hot Chocolate Sauce, a sugar substitute such as one made with stevia can be substituted for the sugar. I have made it with the Aldi brand stevia sweetener, and it is just as amazing as the original recipe. If you are using a sugar substitute, you would use the same amount of sugar substitute as you would sugar.
Another tip: I usually make a double batch and freeze the 2nd portion until I am ready to use it.
After the Hot Chocolate Sauce has been in the refrigerator, be sure to stir it well before using. The chocolate will settle at the bottom of the jar.
