How to Make Hot Chocolate Fudge Sauce

  1. Heat 1/2 cup of milk and 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until the butter is completely melted and the mixture is warm.
  2. Remove from heat and whisk in 1/4 cup of hot chocolate mix until completely smooth and there are no lumps.
  3. Return the saucepan to low heat.
  4. Cook, stirring constantly, for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. It should coat the back of a spoon.
