Hot Fudge Sauce

When we bought our first microwave, it came with a cookbook and this hot fudge recipe is the one we use most often from it. It's super simple, and I'm including this picture to show Jeff how easy it would be for him to make in his dorm room!

Combine 1/2 cup light corn syrup and 1 cup chocolate chips in a microwavable bowl. Microwave them for one minute, then stir until the chocolate is melted. Mix in 1/4 cup cream or milk and you're done. (The original recipe also adds 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1 tablespoon butter, but I usually leave them out. In addition, you can see the difference between cream and milk in the two pictures above.) Once it's done, you can dip marshmallows or pretzels or whatever you want in it, or build yourself a banana split. Store it in the refrigerator and just reheat in the microwave again when you want some more.
