Grandma Fitch's Hot Fudge Sauce

Grandma Fitch is my Aunt Terrie's Mother-in-law. Anyone who has ice cream at my aunt's house knows this fudge sauce. You will need to be vigilant with this recipe. If you over cook the chocolate, it will crystallize into fudge. It will seem soupy, but it will thicken more as it cools.

• 6 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
• 1 Cup Milk
• 1 Cup Sugar
• 4 Tbsp Butter
• 1 Tsp Vanilla

1. Measure sugar and add cocoa. Mix well.
2. Warm milk in microwave with butter.
3. Add sugar mix and stir until well blended.
4. Microwave on high 3 minutes and remove; stir well.
5. Microwave on high another 6 minutes and remove; stir well.
6. Microwave 3 minutes more until sauce bubbles (it may have to be cooked more time, but watch it). Add vanilla.
7. Sauce will not be really thick at first. It will thicken as it cools.
