NOTES: * Hot fudge sauce for ice cream -- This is the fudgiest and best sauce you'll ever taste. The recipe has been passed down in our family for years and years. * This sauce becomes like fudge candy when refrigerated, and it's hard to keep from poking your finger in it for a taste. Simply reheat in a saucepan to melt it down. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 30 minutes. : Precision: approximate measurement OK. : Pat Boren : The Rand Corporation, Santa Monica CA : decvax!randvax!boren : Copyright (C) 1986 USENET Community Trust
