This amazing, rich and chocolatey fudge is easy to make and can be given as a gift or kept all to yourself (we won’t judge if you opt for the latter).
ingredients
directions
Grease an 8-inch (20 cm) square pan and line the bottom and sides with parchment paper.
Melt the chocolate and butter in a metal bowl placed over a pot with an inch (2.5 cm) of barely simmering water, stirring until melted. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Place the sugar, water and corn syrup in a small saucepot and bring to a full boil over high heat. Immediately remove from the heat and whisk into the condensed milk (make sure the condensed milk is in a heatproof bowl). Whisk in the chocolate, vanilla and salt and let sit for 5 minutes without stirring. Stir the fudge vigorously by hand with a spatula or wooden spoon for a few seconds, then pour into the prepared pan and chill for 2 hours (the fudge slices best when chilled.)
Turn the fudge out onto a cutting board and cut into squares. Roll these in icing sugar to coat on all sides and place the fudge portions into mini paper cups if you wish.
