With Variations....My mother in law always sends us various flavors of fudge for Christmas. The package can get prety expensive so she gave me the recipes so I could make them myself. Ingredients:
3 (6 ounce) packages semi-sweet chocolate chips (approx. 3 cups) |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk) |
1 dash salt |
1/2-1 cup chopped nuts |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. In heavy saucepan, over low heat, melt chips with Eagle Brand® and salt. Remove from heat; stir in nuts and vanilla. 2. Spread evenly into wax paper lined 8x8 or 9x9 inch square pan. Chill 2 hours or until firm. 3. Turn fudge onto cutting board; peel off paper and cut into squares. Store loosely covered at room temperature. 4. Notes: Microwave: In 1 quart glass measure, combine chips with Eagle Brand® and salt. Cook on 100% power (high) 3 minutes or until chips melt, stirring after each 1 1/2 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Proceed as above. 5. Variations:. 6. Creamy Dark Chocolate Fudge: Melt 2 cups miniature marshmallows with chips and Eagle Brand. Proceed as above. 7. Milk Chocolate Fudge: Omit 1 (6 ozs.) package semi-sweet chocolate chips. Add 1 cup milk chocolate chips. Proceed as above. 8.
