What Is Hot Fudge?
- Hot Fudge is a thick chocolate sauce that’s served warm, over ice cream.

- You can buy it in a can at the store, but this Hot Fudge recipe is so simple, and nothing beats homemade!!
So I am over 6 cub scouts in my neighborhood. One day, I decided that it was time to do a cooking class. And so I invited each boy to bring a recipe. One of the boys brought this recipe for hot fudge and it was amazing.
I also had the boys make bread, and you know what, they did a great job. Their bread turned out delicious. I also helped the boys make a cook book that I hope that they will cherish all of their lives. It turned out to be one of my favorite den meetings.

What in the world is one cube of butter?
One Cube of butter is equal to 1/2 cup of butter. I’ll go make that more clear in the recipe. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.
Are you using semi sweet or milk chocolate chips?
I want to use this for my sons ice cream cake he asked to make for his birthday.
Either would work, depending on how dark you want your Hot Fudge, but we used semi sweet. Thanks for asking.
