This is a solid, quick hot fudge recipe. (Nothin' beats making a true hot fudge sauce though with light cream, good chocolate, and sugar, though.) I thought it was too sweet as made, so I added a square of unsweetened chocolate. And, as I usually do with chocolate recipes, subbed coffee for the water (probably added about 3 TBSP of coffee). Made a huge difference in the chocolate-y flavor. As a side note I like dark, dark chocolate--80-90%. And, to combat the temp issues many note, I used a double boiler to cook it. (Made it easy to keep warm while waiting for brownies to finish, too!)

Not as good as cooking a sugar based sauce. Consistancy more like pudding. Using chocolate chips eliminates the use of premium chocolate. On the plus, it's very easy to prepare and quick and better than most brought. Wegman's is much better, but homemade cooked with sugar and really good unsweetened chocolate is best.

Yummy, and I even used the fat free Eagle Brand Sweetened condensed milk instead of the regular! I did add a handful more of the chocolate chips since my husband thought it needed to be a little more chocolatety. We won't buy store bought anymore now that we can make this right at home.

It didn't turn out as think as I wanted it to. Next time I may try with dark chocolate and without the added water.

I made this for our ice cream social at work. Everyone loves it! I make it the night before and then put it in a crock pot so it stays warm. Yummy!!Sometimes I melt crushed almond joys in the fudge.

I wanted to drizzle fudge sauce on a cake that I was making and came across this recipe. It was very easy to make and came out great. Everyone commented that the fudge tasted good. I have extra left over and can't wait to try it warmed of course, over some ice cream.

This is delicious hot fudge that I will definately make again. The only change I made was to use milk chocolate chips.

Excellent. The texture was nice and gooey after it cooled with the ice cream. We also dipped cream puffs in it. Yum.

MMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm!!!! I had a need for some chocolate sauce for the vanilla ice cream that was calling my name! I came across this, happened to have all the ingediants, and found Heaven on Earth! This is the BEST! (I forgot to add the water, so it is kind of thick). We put it in the microwave a serving at a time just until heated and more saucey than pudding-y. The family has declared...No More Store Bought Chocolate!
