You could always do a reduction, which is to cook the sauce on low heat for a long time until water evaporates from it and it thickens that way!. You will have to keep an eye on it and stir it!. Otherwise, you can save your money and buy your own jar of thick sauce, just the way you like it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
You can't reduce chocolate by boiling it down and anybody that says to do so is loony!. Heat and Chocolate don't mix!. When you melt chocolate use a double boiler and never use direct heat!. Add some heavy cream that has been reduced by 1/3 and add to chocolate and some sugar to taste (depending on the sugar level of the chocolate you are using)
The best sauce needs to be heated after you make it anyway to (will be solid or too syrupy to pour at room temperature)!. The heavy cream/chocolate is a classic ganach that is perfect for ice cream!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can put it in a saucepan on the stove and heat it on medium heat for a while!. This is called "reducing" the sauce, it will thicken it up!. Make sure to stir it frequently!. It will take a little bit but it works!Www@FoodAQ@Com
If you want to make the sauce thicker put your Dads sauce in a double boiler melt chocolate chips with one tablespoon of shorting( NOT) butter because of the water content butter has or you can eliminate your Dads sauce and just follower the recipe I gaveWww@FoodAQ@Com
Not sure, but you can make your own hot fudge by using this recipe!

thats hard beacuse reduceing could be hard (it being mostly sugar) and it could burn ummm add some milk and coco (not hot chocolate) powder then put it on low and stirWww@FoodAQ@Com
add your own coco with syrup (the syrop ia to balance it with the dryness of the coco)
