This is a simple chocolate sauce I can easily make in Europe, because it doesn't call for corn syrup, which so many American recipes require. It is easy and delicious and what you don't use right away will keep, covered and refrigerated, for about 10 days.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup chocolate chips or any chunked chocolate (I tend to use bittersweet)
1/4 cup butter (NOT margarine!)
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup evaporated milk (in Austria, known as Maresi; NOT sweetened condensed milk)
How to make it:
In a small, heavy saucepan over low heat, slowly melt the butter and chocolate together.
When mostly melted, add the sugar and evaporated milk, stir well, and raise the heat to medium.
Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Lower heat but continue to boil and stir for another 6-8 minutes, until thick and creamy.
Remove from heat and cool slightly before stirring again and serving warm to hot over ice cream or anything that needs a Hot Fudge Sauce.
