The best hot fudge sauce is in Joy of Cooking. I use a little less sugar than it calls for and only let it boil for 3 minutes. Believe me, once you try this recipe you won't even be looking for another

Does this sauce harden when put on the ice cream?

My hot fudge sauce was a success. I used bittersweet chocolate and honey, and pretty much followed the recipe. The most time consuming part was chopping the chocolate. I had little chocolate shards all over my countertop. I enjoyed putting the warm fudge over vanilla ice cream for a delicious dessert.

no it doesn't harden on contact, but some of it will firm up after a few minutes of contact with ice cream if you haven't managed to eat it quickly. it will get chewy- it's quite delicious, though i've added 2 ounces of unsweetened chocolate to the recipe to make it less sweet....

No - to achieve that you need a coconut oil based fudge sauce

I love this hot fudge recipe. I used dark brown sugar because that’s what I had, but the rest as written. Delicious.

I followed the recipe, and the result had delicious flavor - but hardened immediately on contact with ice cream. What can I do to keep the sauce saucy on ice cream ?

This chocolate fudge was very good for a day. But then I could really taste the honey. I put some into my freezer because it makes so much and I have yet to take it out many months later. This recipe is better than what you can buy from smuckers, but not by much. You’d think that it would be better considering the premium ingredients, but it’s not.

Heavy cream is usually a little too much dairy for me, so I sub coconut cream and use maple syrup as a sweetener. I do ads the butter at the end and a little extra salt. Absolutely divine! Also once it is refrigerated it makes the most delectable egg free pudding…

This seems to be a recipe similar to what my grandmother made. Which was more like a hot chocolate caramel than fudge. This has too many incredients for me…butter, bittersweet chocolate, cream, and salt are all I use. The ice cream is sweet enough.

Fudge sauce is great! I used Lyle’s golden syrup because that’s what I had. I could have gone a little less sweet but everyone else pronounced it the best fudge sauce they’ve had! I doubled it for a second batch.

This is delicious. I added a bit more cocoa powder and heavy cream at the end. Served over coffee ice cream with whipped cream, chopped roasted almonds and a cherry on top. Sublime.

If you want a hard shell this earlier recipe from Melissa worked beautifully:
