Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)
- 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon Softened butter or nonstick spray
- 1 piece Festive bow (optional)
Instructions
Prepare a round cake pan or bundt cake pan by lightly greasing it with butter or nonstick spray. Alternatively, line the pan with plastic wrap for easy removal.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk.
Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each interval, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. This should take about 1 to 1.5 minutes in total.
Stir in the vanilla extract, chopped nuts, and dried cranberries until fully incorporated.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly to take the shape of the pan. If using a bundt pan, ensure the middle stays hollow to form a wreath shape.
Let the fudge cool and set at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours, or place it in the refrigerator for faster setting (about 30 minutes).
Once the fudge is firm, gently remove it from the pan and place it on a serving platter.
Decorate the wreath with a festive bow if desired and serve in slices or bite-sized pieces. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
