Munchie Monday: Quick and Easy Hot Fudge Sauce

Homemade hot fudge sauce is so easy to make and tastes far better than any sauce you can buy at the store. In my opinion.

You need a double boiler to make this but you can figure out one by putting a large bowl on top of a pot of boiling water.

In the top of the double boiler place:

1/4 butter
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate

Stir until both are melted.  Add:
3/4 cup granulated sugar

Stir until the sugar is dissolved.  Remove from heat.

Add:
3/4 -1 cup heavy whipping cream
1-2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Dash of salt

Stir well then pour over ice cream or whatever else you want to douse with lovely hot fudge sauce.

If you do not use it all, place in a glass jar in the refrigerator then warm up when you want serve it again.  OR...just use a spoon and spoon it right into your mouth...!  It is that good.  In my opinion.
