FUDGE FROSTING/ HOT FUDGE SAUCE

Fudge Frosting/ Hot Fudge Sauce image

Originally the recipe was used as frosting for my grandma's chocolate mayonnaise cake, but also works well as a hot fudge sauce for ice cream. It's not overpowering in sweetness or flavor and I love the smooth texture. You decide or do what I did and try both. Cooking, prep, and yield is approximate.
