Super Simple Hot Fudge Sauce


Melt in a microwave safe bowl for 1 minute:

1 C. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cube (1/2 C. ) butter

Stir and melt for another 30 seconds if needed.

Add 1- 14 oz. can sweetened condensed
milk and 1/8 C. milk and stir until blended.
Heat through.

This is the best hot fudge sauce I have ever made. Next time you buy some good vanilla ice cream, just make this to go with it! Super delicious!

Add in dry ingredients and stir with a spoon now. Add nuts if desired. Cook 65-70 minutes at 325. Let cool in pan on rack 15 minutes. Remove from pan, cool completely on rack.


I LOVE this recipe. I'll post a pic when I get one. I'm going to make this this week and am going to try 1/4 cup oil and 3/4 cups applesauce. I'll let you know how that turns out. I also use mini bread pans and cook the bread for about 30 minutes. Enjoy!!
