Rich Chocolate Fudge Recipe
Ingredients:
- 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
- Prepare the Pan:
Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, ensuring the foil extends over the edges for easy removal. Lightly grease the foil with butter or nonstick spray.
- Melt the Ingredients:
In a medium saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate is melted and the mixture becomes smooth and glossy.
- Add Vanilla and Salt:
Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until fully incorporated.
- Pour into Pan:
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly, ensuring a smooth top.
- Chill the Fudge:
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours until it sets and becomes firm.
- Cut into Squares:
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the edges of the foil. Peel away the foil and transfer the fudge onto a cutting board. Cut into small squares using a sharp knife.
- Serve and Store:
Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks, or refrigerate for a longer shelf life. This rich and creamy fudge is perfect for indulging in your chocolate cravings. Enjoy!
