Genie's Chocolate Sauce

This recipe for homemade hot fudge sauce was contributed by Ann Brown via Sarah McKenna.  It is her grandma's recipe.  And it is divine!

Genie's Chocolate Sauce

6 oz (1 cup / half of a standard sized bag) of semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup butter
1 1/3 cup evaporated milk (just under one full can)
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Slowly melt chocolate chips and butter. Add other ingredients and boil for 8 minutes. Serve over ice cream or pound cake.

I made this last week for our family Christmas FHE and we had it over peppermint ice cream. Um, WOW. I LOVE IT! It's the best homemade hot fudge I've ever had because it's so THICK. It uses REAL chocolate chips for the chocolate flavor, as opposed to cocoa powder, so it's creamier, and it's thick b/c of the powdered sugar. If you refrigerate the extra it hardens almost like normal fudge...you have to SCOOP it out! :)

I can't wait to try this with the young women tomorrow. But I have when recipes call for ounces. How many chocolate chips is that?

1 cup, Laura. 12 oz in a bag of choco chips, which is 2 cups. 1/2 of a bag or 6 oz/1 cup.
