Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 350 grams Dark chocolate
- 397 grams Condensed milk
- 30 grams Salted butter
- 150 grams Pistachios (shelled and roughly chopped)
Instructions
Line a 20 cm (8-inch) square baking tin with foil or parchment paper, leaving some overhang to make it easy to lift the fudge out later.
Break the dark chocolate into pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
Add the condensed milk and salted butter to the bowl with the chocolate.
Set the bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Stir continuously until the chocolate and butter are melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the bowl from the heat and fold in the chopped pistachios, reserving a small handful to sprinkle on top for decoration.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared baking tin, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the reserved pistachios on top, pressing them slightly into the fudge to help them stick.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm and set.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the tin using the overhanging foil or parchment paper. Cut it into 36 small squares to serve.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
