It’s no secret in my family that I love chocolate.
I love it almost as much as I love wine. Almost. I found a recipe for a Hot Fudge Pie and I tweaked it a bit to turn it into a Hot Fudge Cake.
I cannot even tell you how delicious this gooey chocolatey concoction turned out.
Combined with hot fudge sauce and creamy vanilla ice cream….. hello yumminess.

Pour into greased 8×8 baking dish and bake at 350 for 25 minutes.

Let cool slightly so it sets. Serve with hot fudge sauce and vanilla ice cream. And maybe keep a glucose meter and some insulin handy, just in case.
Look at all that gooey chocolatey yumminess. Divine, isn’t it? I can tell you that it tastes even better than it looks. My family devoured this in less than a hour.
I know, big pack of piggies aren’t they? I even caught Ty licking the bottom of the baking dish.
One more tempting look at all those tasty layers of goodness. I think I just gained another 3 pounds from looking at this picture.
