French Silk Fudge
Ingredients:
– 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Pinch of salt
– 1 cup chopped toasted walnuts (optional)
– Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling on top (optional)
Instructions:
1. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Set aside.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
3. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until well combined.
4. If desired, fold in the chopped toasted walnuts for added crunch and flavor.
5. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
6. For an extra touch of sophistication, sprinkle flaky sea salt over the top of the fudge.
7. Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until set.
8. Once the fudge is firm, lift it out of the baking dish using the parchment paper overhang and place it on a cutting board.
9. Cut the fudge into small squares or rectangles using a sharp knife. If the fudge is too hard, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before cutting.
10. Serve and enjoy the luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth goodness of French Silk Fudge!
