The one mistake I tend to make when making any chocolate recipe on the stove is to overcook the chocolate! I love to multitask in the kitchen- which usually results in burned chocolate.
One way to keep from burning your hot fudge sauce is to start with the heat on med-low. Depending on how quickly your stove top warms up or how hot it gets, I like to start with a lower temperature then increase.
Recipes like these store best in small 8oz mason jars. I like the glass jars because you can see what is inside and you don’t have to transfer it to another container to reheat in the microwave.
Serve hot fudge over ice cream, frozen yogurt or as a dip for your favorite desserts.
