Ingredients:
> see picture of the brand of items I use.
1/2 cup cocoa
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light or dark Karo syrup
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 tsp salt
3 tablespoons margarine, I use Land Of Lakes brand
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
**Recipe makes 2o ounces.
Start by combine all ingredients except vanilla into your pot. Vanilla will be the last ingredient added once you take the chocolatesauce off the stove top.
Above, all ingredients in pot ready to start heating! Cook over medium heat, stirring until full boil. Boil for 3 minutes, constantly stirring.
Above,all ingredients combined about ready to start boiling.
Above, low boil on medium Be careful stirring, (be sure to constantly stir) you don’t want to splash the HOT fudge sauce onto your fingers or hand. After boiling for 3 minutes, remove completely from the heat and add 1 tsp pure vanilla extract and stir to incorporate.
While the chocolate syrup is hot pour into a glass container. I use the small wide mouth Ball mason jars.
Using the wide mouth mason jar will make it easier to heat and gives you easy access with a spoon to remove the chocolate syrup when you are ready to eat! A jar of my homemade hot fudge sauce makes a great gift too. 🙂 Be sure to store the hot fudge sauce in the fridge until you are ready to eat. As it cools it will become really thick. All you need to do is heat it in the microwave to get it hot and ready to eat! Now to make the cake, I use Duncan Hines cake mix and just follow the instructions on the back of the box.
Use a 9 X 13 inch sheet cake pan. All ingredients mixed and ready to go into the oven.
Maybe you prefer only the cake and hot fudge, it’s just as delicious! 🙂 You can also use this hot fudge sauceto for fondue,dipping fruit, strawberries, pineapple, marshmallows, etc., you name it!!
When I make this recipe I will buy the Mayfield vanilla ice cream inthe rectanglecarton to make it easy to slice the ice cream. Cutyou a piece of cake, slice it in half, cut a piece of ice cream to fit, then you are ready to cover with the hot fudge sauce! Add whip cream too!
If you don’t want to do the cake, it’s great with just ice cream! Or over brownies or cup cakes, be creative.
