Fudge!! Oh how I love fudge. My family has been using Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk for generations.
Fudge is one of those last minute things that is going to impress if it's got a silky texture and it's really easy to make it fancy and on trend.
Today we made a nice big pan of a subtly two toned fudge to give as gifts- or at least as much as my husband will allow out the door. I suspect he's going to decide a lot of people get cookies instead! The first thing he said when he tasted it is "It's not grainy, it's perfect fudge!"
Ingredients:
1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 bag milk chocolate chips
1 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
3/4 cup caramel chips - I used Ghiradelli brand for all the chips.
1 stick butter (8 Tbs) + extra for buttering the waxed paper for easy release
2 cans Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 jars of maraschino cherries- my own preference is for Tillen Farm's cherries with no artificial colors or flavors
2 tsps. vanilla
Caramel sauce
Nice flake salt- I used an Alaskan sea salt that's made small batch in Sitka.
Supplies:
9x13x2 inch pan and wax paper to line it
1 large sauce pan
Spoon and silicone spatula
Line the 9x13 pan with waxed paper, and butter it lightly
In the sauce pan, combine
1 bag semi-sweet chips
3/4 cup milk chocolate chips
1/4 cup caramel chips
1 can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/2 stick (4 Tbs.) butter
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until it's all melted and combined. Remove from heat, stir in 1 tsp. vanilla. Pour into pan, spread it evenly.
In the same pan-
the rest of the bag of milk chocolate chips
1 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup caramel chips
1 can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/2 stick (4 Tbs.) butter
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until it's all melted and combined. Remove from heat, stir in 1 tsp. vanilla. Pour into pan, spread it evenly over first layer.
Put the cherries on top evenly spaced. Chill.
Add a drizzle of caramel sauce, cut into cubes, and put on a lightly sprinkle of salt.
