Description

This was my grandmother Helen’s recipe. So easy but yet so good. I give it for gifts, and my kids would kiss each other for this. Warm it up an serve it over ice cream. Or do as my grandmother would do: put a brownie under the ice cream first. Awesome. One recipe makes 2 pints of sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 stick Butter (Do Not Use Margarine)
  • 6 ounces, weight Unsweet Chocolate
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 1 can (12 Oz. Can) PET (Evaporated) Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla

Preparation

Melt the butter and chocolate until blended. Stir in the sugar slowly until completely mixed.

Add milk s-l-o-w-l-y, stirring constantly. Add in vanilla; make sure all is blended.

Allow t0 cool slightly. Put in 2 pint jars. Enjoy!

Followed the recipe exactly and it is wonderful! Comes together quickly and surprisingly the sugar dissolves way faster than I thought it would. I’ll never buy another jar of hot fudge again!

*Note – Cook over a medium low heat to keep from burning.

worked equally well using 1/2 and 1/2 (that’s what I had on hand).
