Notes:
1. Be careful not to burn the chocolate sauce - stir frequently and use low heat. 2. You can probably half the recipe for the chocolate sauce as it makes a lot of sauce. I used left over sauce for dipping strawberries and pineapples or for putting over ice cream. 3. I heated the chocolate sauce so it was nice and creamy before I served it. 3. I made some extra whipped cream by adding another half cup of cream and a little extra confectioners sugar and put on top of the chocolate sauce and then sprinkled with the peanuts
