Homemade Hot Fudge Sauce

I love ice cream, but I don’t like all the unpronounceable words in the ingredient list of commercial hot fudge sauces.  This recipe is so easy to make – it has only 6 ingredients! 

Homemade Hot Fudge Sauce

Ingredients
2 Cups Sugar
4 Tablespoons Flour
2/3 Cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
2 Cups Whole Milk
4 Tablespoons Butter
2 Teaspoons Vanilla

    

Whisk sugar, flour and cocoa powder in a bowl, and set aside.   

     

Heat milk, butter and vanilla on medium high heat.  When the butter has melted, add the dry mixture, whisking constantly.  Whisk for approximately 5-7 minutes, until the sauce is glossy and has no lumps. 

 

Spoon it into a glass container with lid, and store it in the refrigerator.  It should last at least 1 week.  

     

Enjoy!!   

This recipe makes about 3 1/2 cups of hot fudge sauce.    This also makes a great gift – I’m giving it to my daughter’s teachers for Teacher’s Appreciation Day.  Thank you, EatMakeRead, for this delicious recipe!
