Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp Instant espresso powder
- 2 tbsp Kahlua liqueur
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp Unsalted butter
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper and lightly greasing it with non-stick spray or butter. Set aside.
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, cocoa powder, and unsalted butter.
Set the saucepan over low heat and stir continuously with a heatproof spatula until the chocolate chips are completely melted, and the mixture is smooth. Be careful not to overheat or scorch the mixture.
Once smooth, stir in the instant espresso powder, Kahlua liqueur, vanilla extract, and salt. Continue stirring until all ingredients are fully incorporated, ensuring the espresso powder dissolves completely.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared 8x8-inch pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Gently tap the pan on the counter to release any trapped air bubbles.
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 1 hour, then transfer the pan to the refrigerator. Let it chill for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Once the fudge is firm, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper, and place it on a cutting board.
Slice the fudge into 25 equal squares (or any desired size) using a sharp knife. Clean the knife with a warm, damp cloth between cuts for neat edges.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
