Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz (1 can) Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1.5 cups Shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Flaked sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper for added non-stick assurance.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and butter over low heat. Stir frequently until the chocolate and butter are fully melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the shredded coconut, pure vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined.
Pour the chocolate coconut mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly and smooth the surface.
Optional: Sprinkle the flaked sea salt evenly over the top of the fudge for a touch of savory contrast.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to slice. For easier slicing, you can chill it overnight.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut it into 16 even squares or smaller bite-sized pieces as desired.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Serve chilled or at room temperature for maximum enjoyment.
