12 Days of Yummies: Lark's Hot Fudge Sauce

Day 2

This is another recipe I got from my mom a while back, so I'm not really sure where it originated from (I know she got it from a friend who got it from a friend...).  I made this one Christmas for my husband's family and they all seemed to love it.  I find that putting Hershey syrup on my ice cream is a big waste of calories, but this stuff...you could tell me I'd gain 5 lbs from eating a spoonful and I'd still have a spoonful...most likely numerous times.  Mmmmm.  This is a great gift idea (just make sure you tell them to refrigerate it)!
