A delicious recipe for Hot Fudge Sauce made with Chocolate Chips and Peanut Butter.
Can you define self-control? Want me to tell you about it?? Of course I will!
Self-control is when you have a saucepan filled with a creamy and smooth Chocolate Peanut Butter Hot Fudge Sauce, staring you down, but you don’t dare touch it because you have to take a photo of the delicious mess you just made.
AND it’s not just one photo. Oh no. It’s like 116 photos, which can take up to 1 hour, or so. That’s self-control.
Staring at this chocolate hot fudge sauce for one hour before taking a lick! I did that. I really did. I always do. It’s SO hard! BUT, I have self-control. And discipline. YAY ME!
I joined the Chocolate Party again this month, and my lovely friend Roxana from Roxana’s Home Baking challenged me to a Chocolate-Peanut Butter concoction. Lucky us!! Isn’t that the best flavor combo, everrr?
I swear, I can’t believe I didn’t start eating peanut butter up until I was 20-some years old. Idiot. I missed out on all that choco-pb goodness for 20 years! I will never get back those years!!
I’m making up for it by spooning this amazing sauce on top of everything I find – ice cream, cake, bananas, apple slices… Asparagus, too. EW! Just kidding. That would be gross. I *think*.
Honestly? This fudge sauce is some serious business. Once you taste this, you will never, ever go back to store-bought stuff.
Also? I make mine with fat-free sweetened condensed milk to save a few calories. BUT, does it really make a difference when you eat half of it? In one sitting?? It’s like ordering a Big Mac with a diet Pepsi. Eh. My mind feels better knowing that I used fat-free-something.
You only need about 5 minutes to make this. 5 Minutes! Get the peanut butter out, and those chocolate chips, and get to work! Delicious things are about to happen!
ENJOY!

OMG just love this over my brownies and ice cream.
What’s the best way to reheat?
Hi! Yep, same here! I love this stuff over ice cream, too! The best way to reheat is to do it over medium-low heat on the stovetop. Microwave would be risky – chocolate burns quite quickly in the microwave – but you can do it, just make sure to check on it every 10 seconds, and stir. 🙂
