Equipment

  • medium sized saucepan

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup chopped semi sweet or milk chocolate
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, cubed
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup evaporated milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized saucepan, combine 3/4 cup chopped semi sweet or milk chocolate and 4 tbsp unsalted butter, cubed. Heat over medium heat and whisk until chocolate is melted completely.
  • Once chocolate has melted, whisk in 2/3 cup granulated sugar and 2/3 cup evaporated milk.
  • Bring to a boil over medium heat; once boiling, cook 8 minutes. Whisk constantly to avoid scorching or burning.
  • After 8 minutes, remove from heat and whisk in 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • Allow to cool slightly before using or place in an airtight container. Store in refrigerator.

Notes

  • You can use chocolate chips for the chocolate pieces, but be sure to use a high quality brand. I like Guittard chips.
  • The hot fudge sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
  • Reheat in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval until it is a pourable consistency.
  • Makes 1 1/2 cups
