This was delicious! I made it for an ice cream social and it was a big hit. I went home with an empty bowl. Everyone likes homemade.

I thought this recipe was delicious and really simple to make. Beware, it does make a lot of chocolate sauce. I think next time I will half the recipe.

This tasted great the first time it was heated up, but after that I think the sugar crystalized and the sauce was crunchy from the sugar. Next time I may try to heay portions of the fudge up, not the whole tub.

The recipe was okay - just not as good as what Grandma used to make - it was a soso substitute. People liked it, but then, they'de never tasted my grandmas. I'll keep looking until I found the one I'm looking for.

This recipe was incredibly easy and delicious! I doubled the recipe and served it in a chafing dish on my kitchen island, and served it with cubed pound cake, pineapple and bananas chunks, strawberries, and large marshmallows. This fondue was a big hit with my guests. I'd like to place it in jars and give it as gifts over the holidays.

Very chocolatey! However, don't hurry when making. Let the sugar dissolve completely or you will not get a very smooth sauce.

So very easy to make, yet as decadent as other hot fudge sauces that must be cooked on the stove and take 3 times as long to make. My husband who is a an avid chocolate lover (even bittersweet), says this the best recipe yet we have ever had for hot fudge sauce.
