It is hot fudge! This is a creamier recipe. I would compare the consistency with "Mrs. Richardson's" hot fudge. Some of the others I've used with white sugar have been good but then have a grainy consistency when cold. I would compare those with "Hershey's" hot fudge. I'm a sweet tooth and this is pretty sweet. I did use 3 ounces of unsweetened baking chocolate and then for the heck of it, added in 1 tbsp. of unsweetened baking cocoa.

I read some of the other reviews and modified the recipe a bit and it turned out great - just a little thick. My family loved its richness and fudginess. Instead of just two squares, I used four ounces of unsweetened chocolate and didn't bother chopping it. I melted that in a small pot - I don't have a double boiler and it worked fine with a lot of stirring - with the s.c. milk, salt, and a tablespoon of butter. It was plenty thick but I liked the consistency so I left out the water and added the vanilla after it cooled some. I had to reheat it for dessert, and it thickened so that instead of pouring or drizzling, it glopped, so it didn't make for an especially attractive sundae sauce, but it sure tasted great!

Great, easy, fast recipe! If you do not have a double boiler, you can place a stainless steel bowl on top of a 2 quart sauce pan with simmering water and it works great! Make sure the steel bowl is large enough that it does not fit in the pan! That way you do not need to worry about the water leaking into the pan. I was needing something chocolately and it was great to pull something together from my cupboard! Thanks so much!

I have this same basic recipie, but mine does not call for water, salt or vanilla, only the sweetened condensed milk and 2 chocolate squares. Everytime I make it, everyone thinks it is wonderful. I will usually thin it a little with either half and half or heavy cream.

A great quick and easy fudge recipe with minimal ingredients. I like to add coffee instead of the water for a great mocha taste. I also let is cool completely before storing in the fridge. It helps it from getting a grainy texture when reheating.

I made this with 6 ounces of semisweet chocolate, reduced the water to 3 tablespoons and added 2 tablespoons of butter to it. Very yummy.

This is the best hot fudge sauce I have ever made! I didn't need to add the water. I have made it with both unsweetened and semi-sweet chocolate. Slightly different flavors--both excellent!

I used more chocolate and kept it over the d.boiler longer for a thicker sauce and left out the water. This was awesome! Made Sunday's for T.G., it was a hit and gone quickly. Thank you so much for the great recipe. Now I known what to do with those cans of s.c. milk :) Yummy!!!!!!!

This is the Best hot fudge you will ever have! I make this for my kids, and they never want the fake and expensive stuff from the store anymore, I don't add any water. It may also be done on the stove top on low heat, stirring constantly.

I have tried many fudge sauce recipes and this is the best. Very easy to make. If cooked for the full 10 minutes, it thickens up very nicely. I ended up using almost all the water it called for and it was still pretty thick. I will definitely make this again.

I thought this was very good and easy to make. I have made it twice. First with the original recipe and the second time with low fat sweetened condensed milk to "lighten" it up a bit. The lighter version tasted just as good.

I found this sauce to be okay, but it could have been much better. It tastes more like brownie batter, rather than hot fudge from an ice cream shop. It could be darker and richer.

This recipe tastes more like chocolate pudding than Fudge sauce. Water can be eliminated for a thicker sauce. Good recipe for kids, not for hot fudge sundaes.

Great sauce! Not as fudgy as some, but still excellent and easy to make. I don't have a double boiler, so I just rested one pan inside of the other, sort of crooked. Worked just fine. I added only a very little bit of water to mine and it came out the perfect consistency.

First time making Fudge Sauce and this was the perfect recipe. I only added some of the water and it was great on our ice cream. No need to go to Baskin Robbins anymore.
