on 12/19/2007 Just like to mention the first hot fudge sundae was created at Brownie's Pharmacy soda fountain on Hollywood Blvd. in Los Angeles in the '30's. The pharmacy is long gone, the treat, thank GOODNESS, remains!

on 11/22/2005 This is a inexact recipe. You'll need to make adjustments as you go, but it's yummy.

Get some Milky Way bars (either one or two big ones or four or five or six of the little Halloween bars). Also, get some whipping cream.

Melt the Milky Way bars in the microwave (or over low heat on the stove). Stir in the cream until it's blended properly. Adjust the cream until you've got a thick (but runny) mixture. Pour it over ice cream.

It's rich, but very easy.
