Easy Hot Fudge Sauce
This quick hot fudge is destined to become your new go-to for topping ice cream! Chocolate, butter, and sweetened condensed milk blend together to make an ideal thick, chocolatey fudge sauce perfect for drizzling on a sundae or dipping your favorite fruit.
Servings
Ingredients
- 3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate 3 squares of baking chocolate, or about 1/2 C chocolate chips. Avoid milk chocolate as it's too sweet, however both dark and bittersweet are awesome. Semisweet works as well, though I prefer something darker.
- ¼ cup salted butter
- 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- If you're using baking squares, chop them up into small pieces so they melt easier. I chop the butter up into small chunks too.
- Combine chocolate, butter, and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan. Place pan over medium heat and melt, stirring continuously, until everything melts together.
- Serve over ice cream, or as fondue with your favorite fruit. This sauce will thicken upon standing, so if you're using it for fondue, you may want to put it in a warmed container.
Notes
- One batch yields 1 3/4 cups (14 fluid ounces) hot fudge.
- If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge. It will harden into a soft, gooey fudge like consistency. Then keep a spoon handy on the counter and dip it in every time you pass by. If you want to use it as sauce again, simply microwave at 15-30 second intervals, stirring each time, until desired consistency is reached.
