Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8-inch pan by lining it with parchment paper and lightly greasing the paper. Set aside.
In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine the brown sugar, unsalted butter, and whole milk.
Microwave the mixture on high for 3 minutes, or until the butter has melted and the mixture is bubbling vigorously. Be cautious as the mixture will be hot.
Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave and whisk the mixture until smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until well combined.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, whisking vigorously to remove any lumps. Continue until all 2.5 cups of powdered sugar are incorporated and the mixture thickens.
Immediately pour the mixture into the prepared 8x8-inch pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Allow the fudge to set for at least 1 hour at room temperature or 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Once set, cut the fudge into 16 squares and enjoy!
