Mix Cornstarch and Egg Yolks
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and egg yolks until well combined. Gradually add a few tablespoons of the hot milk mixture to the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.

Add Vanilla
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the custard into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.
Fudge Sauce Preparation

Melt the Chocolate
In a saucepan over low heat, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Stir constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.

Cool the Sauce
Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. The fudge sauce will thicken as it cools.
