My manager at work, who knows I like to try new treat recipes, shared this one with me. I've made this chewy and chocolaty fudge many times since. Packed with nuts and caramel, it's like a candy bar. Everyone who's tried it loves it. -Lois Freeman, Oxford, Michigan Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
1/3 cup baking cocoa |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup milk |
3-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
30 caramels, unwrapped |
1 tablespoon water |
2 cups salted peanuts |
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips |
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, cocoa, brown sugar and milk. Microwave on high until mixture boils, about 2 minutes. Stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Pour into a greased 8-in. square dish.
2. In another microwave-safe bowl, heat caramels and water on high for 1-1/4 minutes or until melted. Stir in peanuts; spread over chocolate layer. Microwave chocolate chips on high for 30 seconds or until melted; spread over caramel layer. Chill until firm. Yield: 2-3/4 pounds.
