I realize that for some people this may cause a shocked reaction on par with my husband’s the time I told him I’ve never watched Goonies before (or Jacob’s, upon discovering the internet). Obviously I grew up under a rock, right? Thus, given my proximity to concrete-like materials you’d think I have been better prepared for the texture of the one I purchased from the vending machine in the basement of my freshman dorm (not at 4 a.m. or anything, either, nope, not this angel!). Homemade Pop Tarts.

Think of all the things I could have baked with pastry dough.

Homemade Pop Tarts

The tarts, the quiche, the sweet cherry pies. And yet…I chose pop tarts. You heard that right. Homemade pop tarts. Remember those crisp-edged toasty pastries that came two to a foil pack? Especially if said pastries have gooey centers filled with brown sugar and cinnamon. …or rose-hued cherry centers.

Simply Recipes Food and Cooking Blog. Eagle Brand® Easy Homemade Chocolate Sauce – I Really Wanted To Call This Hot Fudge.

What makes this a chocolate sauce, and not hot fudge, is the fact that it doesn’t firm up when it hits the ice cream.
