2 cups Brown Sugar
½ cup Whole Milk
2 squares Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate, chopped (2 ounces)
Dash Salt
1 stick Butter (8 tablespoons Butter)
1 teaspoon real Vanilla Extract (Park-Davis Vanilla Extract)

Combine the brown sugar, milk, butter, chopped chocolate, and salt in a heavy saucepan set over medium heat. Bring to a low boil on medium to medium high heat, whisking constantly. Once it reaches a boil, immediately reduce to simmer.
Simmer and whisk for five minutes or until the sauce begins to thicken.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
Let cool to lukewarm before serving.
Serve over Vanilla Ice Cream.

Everyone who tried to make her Hot Fudge Sauce failed using her recipe.
The Best Hot Fudge Sauce found at http://smittenkitchen.com/2017/06/best-hot-fudge-sauce/ is very much like what we remember her sauce being.

Aunt Susan was a wonderful housekeeper. She lived with my Grandparents for many years. My Dad was about thirteen years old when she came to live with them. She was a third Grandmother to me, and my siblings. I had a wonderful time hiking, and picking berries with her in the forest. She made the best Fried Chicken Dinners, and Strawberry Jelly Rolls. In 1978 she died on Christmas day. She was very much loved, and we all considered her as a family member.
