Hot fudge

I use this for topping chocolate pancakes. It tastes like leatherby's hot fudge if you put it on ice cream. I also put some cold on a peanut butter cookie and microwaved it for 10 seconds. That's the cookie in the picture.

Here it is.
1/2 cup salted butter
3/2 cups sugar
3 T cocoa powder
1/4 cup milk
Pinch of salt if it needs it.
1 t baking soda at the end when you take it off the heat. This is if you want it foamy for pancake syrup. Beware, it doubles in size briefly if you do this.


Put everything in a saucepan and bring it to bubbling over medium heat then remove from heat.

This can be refrigerated.
