10 Minute Chocolate Fudge Topping

Submitted by Simply Fresh Cooking

"This is such a decadent fudge topping that has an almost "caramel-like" quality to it. It's so good on ice cream - or just eaten by the spoonful! There's no excuse to buy the jarred kind that's filled with preservatives when it's this easy to prepare yourself. Just throw 4 ingredients into a big pot and stir it constantly while boiling for about 8 minutes and you're ready to go. Easy peasy!"

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 4
• Yields: 1 3/4 Cups
• Serves: 14

ingredients

• 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1⁄2 cup salted butter (or 1 stick)
• 3 semi-sweet chocolate baking squares

directions

1. Place all ingredients in a large pot over high heat (there aren't many ingredients, but a large pot will help to prevent the chocolate from splattering everywhere as it boils). Bring to a boil and stir the mixture constantly for 8-10 minutes. Cover and refrigerate any unused fudge topping.
2. The fudge topping will become firm in the refrigerator. Reheat on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Or reheat in the microwave - start with 30 seconds; stir, then continue heating and stirring in 10 second increments until desired temperature is reached.
3. 1 serving equals 2 tablespoons.
