Summer time is always busy for us with lots of fun family activities, barbecues, going to the park, etc. So when it comes to cooking and baking I need quick and easy! That’s where this dessert comes in – EDWARDS® frozen whole pies topped with homemade hot fudge sauce!
I grabbed the Edward’s Pies from Walmart. I got the Turtle Pie and the REESE’S PEANUT BUTTER CUP® Crème Pie. Then I topped them with this creamy and chocolatey homemade hot fudge sauce, you know to make it even more decadent.
This delicious hot fudge is made in just about 10 minutes, so you have this amazing dessert in no time!
This hot fudge is so much better than you can find at any grocery store. Its perfect topped over any dessert, like these pies, a big bowl of ice cream, or brownies. This hot fudge is perfectly thick, but smooth and rich. I swear I could eat the whole jar by the spoonful! Recipe adapted from Created By Diane
I used milk chocolate Guittard chocolate chips, but if you want your fudge a little darker use something else.

This is amazing. I found myself making sure i had enough ingredients for another batch. I love the way is softly solidifies on cold ice cream. I can’t believe its so easy. I have been buying little jars of hot fudge at the supermarket, believing it was too difficult to make. This is so much better than anything you can buy . This will be a staple in my refrigerator. Thank you

This is one of the best hot fudge sauces I’ve ever made, and I’ve made a bunch in my 67 years. I was out of corn syrup so I used honey, no heavy cream so whole milk instead, and I had a mix of dark chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Outstanding and my new favorite!
Aimee Berrett says
Linda, this is exactly the type of comment I love to see! I am so glad you loved it! And made it work for you even without all the called for ingredients! Did you eat by the spoon or on top of ice cream? 🙂
Linda says
I had a little dip of ice cream with a lot of sauce, but it is definitely spoon-worthy. 😉

That sauce looks so decadent. I want to sit down and eat that entire jar!
Michelle De La Cerda says
I’d skip the pie and just eat the sauce.

healingtomato says
What a delightful way to use fudge. I would never have thought of putting it on pie. Edwards makes the best pies in the world.
