Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp sea salt
- optional toppings: chopped nuts or cinnamon sugar
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.
In a medium-sized, heavy-bottom saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and unsalted butter.
Place the saucepan over low heat and stir continuously with a heat-resistant spatula or spoon until the chocolate chips and butter are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Be careful not to let the mixture scorch.
Once melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the ground cinnamon, pure vanilla extract, and sea salt until well incorporated.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out to form an even layer using the back of the spatula or a spoon.
If desired, sprinkle the top with optional toppings like chopped nuts or cinnamon sugar.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2-3 hours, or until it is firm and set.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and slice into approximately 16 bite-sized squares.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Allow it to come to room temperature before serving for the best texture and flavor.
