HOT FUDGE SAUCE

This recipe for a classic hot fudge sauce came to The Times in 2004, from Kay Rentschler. "A well-constructed homemade hot fudge sauce moves forward with dark smoky accents and arrives with plenty of chew," she wrote. Here, bittersweet chocolate and high-fat Dutch process cocoa bring that smokiness, while heavy cream, butter and sugar mellow it out. It's a perfect contrast to the milky sweetness of a sundae loaded with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream.

QUICK HOT FUDGE SAUCE



Quick Hot Fudge Sauce image

My mom used to make this when I was a kid. Last week, DH had eaten all the Magic Shell ( :) ) so I whipped out my cookbook & whipped this up -- it's just as I remembered! Quick, and with such a good flavor. While it's hot, it's kind of thin, like Hershey's syrup consistency-wise, but I like it best cold out of the fridge -- it's thick and pours sloooowly over the ice cream (or cake or whatever). Yum!

  • Add the butter and vanilla extract off the heat: This will help to prevent the sauce from curdling.

Hot fudge sauce is a delicious and versatile dessert topping that can be used on ice cream, cakes, brownies, and more. It's easy to make and only requires a few simple ingredients. With these tips, you can easily make a perfect batch of hot fudge sauce at home.
