Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Shelled pistachios
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and unsalted butter over low heat.
Stir continuously with a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon until the mixture is melted and smooth. Make sure not to overheat or burn the chocolate.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and half of the pistachios (reserve the other half for the topping).
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with your spatula.
Sprinkle the remaining pistachios evenly on top of the fudge, gently pressing them down so they adhere.
Let the fudge cool at room temperature for about 1 hour, then transfer it to the refrigerator to set completely (about 2 hours).
Once set, lift the fudge out of the dish using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut into 16 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.
