1
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, mix together the granulated sugar and unsweetened cocoa powder until well combined.
2
Add Wet Ingredients
Add the stick of butter and milk to the saucepan. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
3
Cook the Sauce
Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a gentle boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens.

Finish with Vanilla
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Set aside to cool slightly.

Scoop Ice Cream
In a sundae dish or bowl, place 4 scoops of vanilla ice cream.
6
Pour Hot Fudge
Generously pour the warm hot fudge sauce over the ice cream, allowing it to flow down the sides.

Sprinkle chopped nuts over the hot fudge, then add a dollop of whipped cream on top.
8
Garnish
Finish with a maraschino cherry on top of the whipped cream.
