Do me a favor, please. It will take only a second. Put your hands together then clap loud and fast. I doubt you can tell, but my Hot Fudge Sauce with Frangelico just took a bow.Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive! I have always liked store-bought hot fudge sauce, but I love this homemade hot fudge. The basic recipe is fantastic but adding Frangelico hazelnut liqueur takes it to the next level – the level where I am tempted to stick my finger in it every time I open the fridge. What is that you say? Ok – the level where I do stick my finger in it every time I open the fridge.
I’m also tempted to do this, but haven’t allowed myself the pleasure – yet! Whether drizzled over my Hot Fudge Sundae Cupcake or even poured over a single scoop of vanilla ice cream, Hot Fudge Sauce with Frangelico is the perfect choice.
I love this recipe because it is delicious, easy and I always have all the ingredients on hand. I know you will love it, too.
Enjoy!
