Would have given this 5 stars, but I tweaked the recipe a bit. I used 3 oz. semi sweet bakers chocolate, added 1/4 cup butter, and omitted the water. Added all ingredients to the double boiler and stirred with a spatula until melted. Once the chocolate completely melted, I used a whisk to make sure the chocolate was velvety smooth. Once it cooled, it was very thick and creamy! I remember having hot fudge sauce like this when I was a kid, and have never been able to find anything as good since...until now! Sooooooo good if you like really thick and creamy fudge sauce!

This is AMAZING!!! My boys were (unknown to me) scooping it out of the jar with a spoon in a shoveling it into their mouths!!! I didn't add the water cause I like mine thick. I loved how easy it was to make. Delicious!!!

This was the perfect flavor for me. I loved it! So much better than store bought. I did add 2 Tb. salt and left out the water.

Of all the hot fudge sauces I have made over the years, this is the easiest and "fudge-like" I have ever tried. I would recommend a high quality chocolate to begin with. It makes all the difference. Add a couple drops of peppermint flavor if you want something a Little different

It's important to use 2 total ounces of unsweetened chocolate. For the Ghirardelli 100% cacao bar that I used, that was 4 squares, not 2. This yielded rich, thick chocolate results. I did add some water, not the full 1/2 cup though. I put some of the sauce in another container and added some Grand Marnier instead of water for the adults - heavenly!!!

I had half a can of condensed milk I needed to use up and was thrilled when I stumbled upon this recipe. Made half recipe as directed (except only used about 3T of water) and I felt it was simply wonderful. Mine only took about 5 minutes from start to finish. Thanks so much!
