What do you do when you don't want to drive out into the winter darkness, but somebody in the house really wants a sundae? You cook, man. You cook. Keep it real and homemade! I was in a hurry, having just finished cooking dinner and I didn't read the "icing" part in the recipe title. Sigh. It looks like hot fudge, it tastes like hot fudge... it must be hot fudge! Opps, no, it's still icing... but it's pretty darn good on ice cream. It's got kind of a "magic shell" kind of thing going on when it gets cold.Hot Fudge - fine, okay it's "Icing" (feel better?)
