Hot Fudge Sauce

In some countries you can purchase bottles of chocolate fudge sauce like here in Russia but I have found a homemade recipe that, to me, tastes better than the chocolate fudge that comes in those cute little bottles. I first found this recipe here when we started searching for a homemade version so we could have some hot fudge sauce with ice cream. The three simple ingredients caught my eye and this recipe is now loved by our entire family.

Ingredients:

Approx. 85 grams of a chocolate candy bar chopped into small pieces (We usually use dark chocolate but you can use milk chocolate)
1 can (14 oz/396 grams) Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/4 cup Butter

Instructions:

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and heat until all ingredients are melted, smooth and creamy. Let cool slightly, serve immediately or store in a container in the fridge for up to a month. To reheat, spoon into a microwave safe bowl and heat until smooth.
