Drizzle this decadent sauce over vanilla or chocolate ice cream, or artfully spoon over angel food cake.

Place the chocolate into the top of a double broiler to melt.
In a small bowl, combine the egg, evaporated milk and sugar, and then stir into the melted chocolate.
Cook the mixture, stirring frequently, until it reaches 160 degrees; about 20 minutes.
Remove the mixture from the heat and then beat for 1 minute with a handheld mixer.
Whisk in the vanilla, and then allow the chocolate sauce to cool before serving.
