Hot Fudge Sauce
I thought the sauce was just okay, but gave it a 5 star rating so not to skew the overall score since I did not use high quality chocolate. I used 2/3 cup Toll House semisweet chips (which I normally think taste pretty good) and Nestle Condensed milk. I tasted the sauce and there was hardly any chocolate flavor at all. I kept adding more and more chips, about 3/4 of a bag and still wasn't pleased with the level of "chocolately" flavor. All I could taste was the condensed milk. I don't think I would try a condensed milk based sauce again. Not sure if a higher quality chocolate would have been any better. I prefer store bought Fran's for sure.

Caramelized Baked Chicken
I didn't think the sauce would carmelize in the oven so I boiled it on the stove with some cornstarch. It got thick but still not "gooey". I used drumsticks and basted the chicken every 10 minutes. I also thought the sauce tasted a little off so I added a tablespoon of bbq sauce and a tbsp of teriyaki sauce as well. I was still thinking the sauce wasn't very good. Until the chicken was completely done and the sauce did carmelize at the end. It ended up delicious! So, 4 stars for having to make so many changes, but it was a good start.

Garlic Chicken
When I read the recipe, i couldn't understand where the flavor came from, but since it was rated so highly, I decided to try it. I followed the recipe exactly except I used panko crumbs. I was pretty disappointed. Not a horrible dish, but there are much better ways to jazz up chicken breasts. My husband and daughter didn't want seconds.
