Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'fudge' (a sweet confection) modifies 'sauce' (a liquid condiment), so a B1 learner who knows both words will infer a sauce made from or tasting like fudge, used as a dessert topping. This noun–noun compound follows a common, transparent English formation and corresponds to similar food compounds in many languages, making the sense readily predictable.
Etymology
The noun fudge sauce comes from the image of fudge, a thick chocolate sweet, melted into a warm sauce and poured over ice cream or cakes. So it means a thick, rich chocolate sauce served hot as a 'dessert' 'topping'.
