Tips to make the best Fudge!
Line the baking tray/ tray – Use parchment paper or baking paper to line the tray. This helps in removing the slab of fudge with ease from the tray.
Ingredients – Use the 3 ingredients as mentioned, do not reduce or substitute any ingredient.
Set the fudge – You will need to set the fudge in the refrigerator, so it does take a bit of time but that gives very nice and neat fudge squares.
Let us makeThe Best Chocolate Fudge, it’s easy and absolutely divine!!
To begin, line any container or baking tray with the baking paper/ parchment paper. Keep all the ingredients ready at room temperature. I used some walnuts too, it’s optional.
Chop the dark cooking chocolate roughly. We will melt the chopped chocolate in a double boiler.
In a deep saucepan, heat about 2 cups of water. Once it starts simmering, place the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl, place this bowl on top of the saucepan with the water below. The bowl on the top should not touch the water when melting the chocolate. Please be careful.
The chocolate will start melting in a few minutes since it is chopped. Stir a few times with a wooden or silicone spatula.
Take the bowl with the melted chocolate off the saucepan, place it on a kitchen towel on the work surface. Ensure no water droplets get into the melted chocolate else the chocolate will seize and cause complications with the rest of the steps.
Next, pour the condensed milk. Mix with a spatula.
Also, add that knob of butter. Mix well and be quick as the consensed milk thickens the whole mixture rather quickly.
Add any chopped nuts now, I used walnuts but that’s optional. Mix well.
Now pour out the mixture in the trays lined with parchment paper. Level out the mixture well. Set the trays in the refrigerator for 6-7 hours.
Once the fudge has set after 6-7 hours, cut them into 1-inch pieces. I could get 85 bite-sized fudge squares.
Keep these fudge squares in a tin or airtight container in the refrigerator. You can store them at room temperature too but they may turn a bit sticky, depends on the climate.
An old-school favorite, this Rich Chocolate Fudge is going to be perfect for your Holiday treats! It melts in the mouth, it's super decadent! You have to try this today!!
