Chocolate Fudge Sauce
I’m one of those people who needs to eat something sweet after having something salty or savory. I almost have some form of ice cream in my freezer to make sure I always have something on hand. For me, it’s usually vanilla ice cream (it’s my fave and I love that it’s both a flavor and a blank canvas at the same time). This chocolate sauce is SO EASY to make, and I promise it’s better than anything you’re finding in a supermarket. It’s sure to be the star of your next sundae!
