- ½ cup butter
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 Tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 can evaporated milk
In a large pot, over medium-high heat, warm butter, sugar, cocoa powder, and evaporated milk, stirring constantly.
Bring to a boil. Continue to stir and boil for 2 minutes.
Remove from heat and continue stirring until sauce cools slightly. Sauce will thicken as it cools.
- Be sure to continuously stir the sauce during the cooking process. This will keep it from sticking or burning.
- It’s important to boil the mixture for 2 minutes. Cooking it for too long can lead to a grainy texture, while undercooking it can result in a thin and runny consistency.
- The hot fudge can be stored in a mason jar or other airtight container for up to 2 weeks in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer.
