absolutely fantasticFebruary 19, 2008By Darcat
"My husband loves ice cream and chocolate sauce or butterscotch sauce. I made this for him and it was an absolute hit. I replaced the vanilla extract with butterscotch extract to give it a stronger flavour and my husband told me not to put the recipe to far from the stove lol. This recipe is a definate keeper."
