Hot Fudge Sauce

Warmer days can only mean one thing: homemade ice cream season is just around the corner! And that's why it's time to stock up on hot fudge sauce.

I love this recipe for a few reasons: It super easy to make. And the sauce can be frozen, so when you have one of those spontaneous summer evening meals with friends, you'll look like quite the host by serving ice cream with this sauce!
