How to Make Easter Fudge
Ingredients
- semi-sweet chocolate chips
- a can of sweetened condensed milk
- salted butter
- cadbury mini eggs
Instructions
Line a 8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with cooking spray or butter.
Place half of the chocolate eggs into the bottom of the casserole dish.
Place chocolate chips, condensed milk, and butter into a microwave-safe bowl.
Heat, uncovered, in the microwave for 1 minute. Stir vigorously, allowing the residual heat to help melt the chocolate. If needed, return the chocolate to the microwave and stir every 15 seconds until the chocolate has melted. Do not overheat the melted chocolate as it will seize up.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to spread it out evenly.
Press remaining mini eggs into the top of the fudge.
Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill the fudge for at least 2-3 hours, or until firm.
Once the fudge is firm, use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and for best results, use a sharp knife heated with warm water and wiped dry to slice the fudge into squares.
After your easy fudge recipe has set in the fridge and before you have cut it, slide it into an airtight ziplock bag. It does stay fresher and uncut. Or, if you have already cut it, store the pieces in an airtight container.
If you would like to freeze your Easter Fudge, wrap it in parchment or plastic wrap and then put it into an airtight container or freezer bag. Freeze for up to two months and let your delicious fudge come to room temperature before enjoying it.
