This decadent hot fudge keeps well in the refrigerator, if you have any left. It kind of turns pudding-ish, and may or may not be delicious eaten straight out of the jar. I wouldn’t know anything about that. ;)
Delicious recipe!
This looks SO good! Any suggestions of subbing the sugar? Do you think maple syrup would work?
I haven”t tried that so I don’t know. If you try it, let me know if it works!
