Hot Fudge Ice Cream Sauce

Someone in this house has a sweet tooth and that sweet tooth is especially fond of chocolate and ice cream. Surprise! It is not me! I will get up in the morning to find a sink full of dirty dishes because Sparky needed a midnight snack….again. There is an ice cream scoop, a cereal bowl, a spoon, an espresso cup used for heating up chocolate sauce in the microwave and another spoon to spoon the sauce over the ice cream. Oh yes, this man loves his ice cream with Hot Fudge Sauce! This past week, Sparky informed me that he is out of his favorite hot fudge sauce that his daughter sent to him. Poor man. But I was in a very good mood today as he had gone to Spokane ( this Covid-19 togetherness is starting to wear on me), so I decided to really make his day and concoct the best home made Hot Fudge Sauce ever.

This is what we’ll need.

Hot Fudge Ice Cream Sauce

Thick, rich, creamy, overloaded with intense chocolate flavor, this sauce is supremo! Not only fantastic over ice cream, but equally wonderful a top of pound cake, a brownie sundae, a drizzle over pancakes and more. Don't hold back, you know you want it!
