Cuisine: American
Serves: 16 pieces
Ingredients
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup nuts (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring the paper overhangs on two sides for easy removal later.
- In a medium saucepan, combine regular chocolate chips and half the can of sweetened condensed milk. Melt over low heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning, until smooth and fully integrated.
- Remove chocolate mixture from heat and stir in half the vanilla extract. If desired, mix in half the chopped nuts.
- Pour the chocolate layer into the prepared pan and spread evenly using a spatula. Refrigerate for about 10 minutes to set slightly.
- In a clean saucepan, repeat the process with white chocolate chips, remaining condensed milk, remaining vanilla extract, and optional remaining nuts.
- Carefully pour the white chocolate mixture over the first chocolate layer, spreading gently to create an even top.
- Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until completely firm and set.
- Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the fudge out of the pan and place on a cutting board.
- Cut into 16 equal squares using a sharp knife, cleaning the blade between cuts for neat edges.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Tips
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor and smooth texture.
- Always melt chocolate on low heat and stir constantly to prevent burning.
- Allow each layer to set slightly before adding the next to create clean, distinct layers.
- Use a sharp knife and clean it between cuts for perfectly neat squares.
- For extra flavor, toast the nuts before adding them to enhance their nutty profile.
- Make sure your parchment paper covers the pan completely for easy removal.
- Refrigerate the fudge thoroughly to ensure it sets properly and cuts cleanly.
- For a festive touch, sprinkle some sea salt or decorative sprinkles on top before final setting.
