    I just made this and it is WONDERFUL! It was so easy, too. It took me less than five minutes prep in the microwave. The perfect summer treat. I will be making this again!

    I worked at a Dariy Queen for over 12 years. If you want to make the Butterscotch Dip just use Butterscotch chips instead of Chocolate. And for the Cherry Dip .. use white chocolate chips, cherry flavoring, and a few drops of red coloring. I have been making this at home for years. I let the kids help make ice cream bars on a stick (DILLY BARS) , freeze them for a few hours. THen let the kids dip them. ALWAYS a huge hit at summer birthday parties.Thank You. so Yummy!

    This would have to be our favourite 'hard' chocolate topping for ice-cream. Easy to make and stores well in fridge & reheats with no problems in the microwave. The only thing I did different the first time I made this was to use some dark chocolate that I had on hand. Can see this being used a lot over the summer. Thanks for posting
