Katie's Old Fashioned Hot Fudge Sauce

It doesn't get much better than a warm chocolate sauce over cold vanilla ice cream.  My dear friend Katie shared a great recipe for fudge sauce with me in college and it has become a favorite.  I served this as dessert at the dinner party I cooked for (and yes, I am almost done talking about the dinner party!).  I just have to tell you that because the people I cook for actually request this hot fudge sauce  they like it so much... thanks, Kads! It is just the perfect consistency and is not overly sweet.  There is not much more to say than the fact that you should definitely make a batch of this as soon as possible.  Enjoy!
