Hot fudge yumminess

Gina asked for the hot fudge sauce recipe; I think I’ve actually served it to her a time or two. ;) It is straight out of Betty Crocker but I will share it here in case anyone else is hungry curious. Just so you know, if you quadruple this recipe, you will end up with 3 quarts of hot fudge sauce. Which happens to be way too much for 30-odd sundaes (especially if it’s not the only sauce available). Fortunately, the leftovers keep well in the refrigerator!

Hot Fudge Sauce

Yield: about 3 cups sauce

    12 ounces evaporated milk                                      
    12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips                           
    1/2 cup sugar                                                  
    1 tablespoon butter                                            
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract                                     

Heat milk, chocolate chips, and sugar to boiling in 2 quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly; remove from heat. Stir in margarine and vanilla. Serve warm over ice cream. Refrigerate any remaining sauce.

    Can’t wait to try this. It looks great! And I bet with some warm peanut butter brownies and vanilla ice cream, it would be almost heavenly!

    I remember it and now I can’t wait to try it, maybe I’ll find an excuse on vacation, if not when we get home. Thanks so much, lol, you know I never even thought to look in a cookbook for a recipe for hot fudge, duh, I’ll bet there’s other things lurking in that cookbook that I need to find, like maybe caramel sauce, yum ;)
