Preparation

Step 1

1. Pour about a cup of your chosen chips into a bowl or a pan and add 2 tablespoons of the butter.

2. For melting in a microwave, put a cover over the bowl. I usually use the saucer that fits the cereal bowl but be sure they are micro-safe. If you are using a pan, put the chips in the pan with the butter and turn on low.

3. Microwave on high for 2 minutes and let sit in the microwave for at least thirty seconds before taking it out. If using the pan, stir constantly until it has completely melted.

4. Take the bowl out of the microwave and gently stir until it completely smooths out. Whether you are using the microwave or the stove, the melted mixture needs to be as runny as gravy. If not, add another tablespoon of butter. Stir slowly. Add more if necessary. The chips will be hot enough to melt the butter so no need to return to the microwave.

5. Spoon over ice cream and wait a minute. This will be great!
