Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Dried mulberries
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter together. Stir continuously until smooth and glossy. Remove from heat and mix in the vanilla extract. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the melted chocolate mixture, mixing until fully incorporated and a thick dough forms.
Gently fold in the dried mulberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking pan and press it into an even layer with a spatula or your hands.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains slightly soft. Avoid overbaking to maintain the chewy texture.
Allow the fudge chewies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, lift the chewies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into 12 equal squares or rectangles.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
