This is my mom's recipe for hot fudge sauce which I have been the happy eater of for many years. And now that I cook, I am the happy cooker of it. It is SO simple and SO delicious. I bring it into work a couple times a year for birthday celebrations and it gets rave reviews every time.
You probably have all the ingredients to make it, and it only takes a few minutes! What more could you ask for in a pot of chocolatey goodness?
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch, cocoa and salt.
Add the boiling water.
Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat and let it boil until it reaches your desired amount of thickness.
Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and butter. DO NOT omit the vanilla. The sauce will be virtually tasteless without it. That sounds contradictory since it's hot FUDGE sauce, not hot VANILLA sauce, but believe me, it's true.
Let cool slightly and serve over pound cake, angel food cake, ice cream, cream puffs, or eat with a spoon right from the pan. You can store this in the refrigerator for several days and reheat in the microwave. Just add a bit of water if it gets to thick before reheating and whisk well.
