This past weekend we took a trip to Santa Barbara, California and did some hiking, shopping, ate some wonderful food, and spent time with family. It was a blast and we really enjoyed the break from this cold Chicago weather. Finding a good ice cream place is always high on our list when we travel, even in the winter, because who doesn't love ice cream! Everyone must be craving spring because my residents at work requested hot fudge sundaes, so I went ahead and made this yummy recipe. This super easy fudge recipe is a favorite around here and I think you'll enjoy it too.
Hot Fudge Topping
Makes about 1 1/2 quarts
1 cup butter
12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 oz unsweetened chocolate
squares
2 3/4 cup evaporated milk (22 oz)
2 tsp vanilla
4 cups powdered sugar
Melt butter and chocolates together. Add evaporated milk and vanilla then slowly mix in powdered sugar. Bring to a boil, continue to stir until desired consistency.
*Batch can be doubled. Also, this recipe is great to make ahead and reheat in microwave or crock pot.
