Ingredients
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 1 cup of chocolate chips, 1 cup of butterscotch chips, 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, 1 cup of chopped pecans, and 1/2 cup of caramel sauce.
- Prepare a 9x9-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it to prevent sticking.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and sweetened condensed milk over medium heat.
- Stir the mixture continuously until the chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy, which should take about 5 minutes.
- Once melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and fold in the chopped pecans until they are evenly distributed throughout the fudge mixture.
- Pour half of the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the fudge layer, using a spoon to create swirls if desired.
- Pour the remaining fudge mixture over the caramel layer, smoothing it out again with the spatula.
- Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce on top of the final fudge layer, and use a toothpick or knife to create swirls for a decorative effect.
- Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until it is firm and set.
- Once set, remove the fudge from the baking dish using the edges of the parchment paper and place it on a cutting board.
- Cut the fudge into 16 squares or your desired size and serve. Enjoy your Super Easy Turtle Fudge!
