Easiest fudge ever



Thought I would share with you guys the easiest and creamiest fudge recipe there is. You can make all sorts of variations to this recipe. Here are the basics. Just three ingredients!

• One 12 oz bag of nestle chocolate morsels. I personally use semi-sweet chocolate because I am not a fan of anything milk chocolate

• one 9oz bag of Nestle winter dark chocolate and mint morsels

• 1 can of sweetened condensed milk I use nestle brand

• 1Tbls of shortening (optional, just makes the fudge look shiny and adds a bit of creaminess)

STOVE TOP DIRECTIONS:
pour all ingredients in a medium sized sauce pan and heat over medium low heat STIRRING CONSTANTLY until the chocolate is completely smooth. about 5-10 minutes depending on your stove top. Caution: chocolate can scorch, keep your stove top at a low setting and keep stirring to keep your chocolate from burning. Once all the ingredients are melted and smooth pour into an 8x8 pan that is lined with wax paper. I also butter my wax paper just to make sure the fudge does not stick. Allow the chocolate to cool and harden, about 15 or so you can put it in the freezer to cool faster. Once the fudge has hardened remove it from the pan and wax paper, cut into 1" squares can be served immediately or stored in an airtight container.

MICROWAVE DIRECTIONS:
Place all ingredients in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 45 SECONDS. stir thoroughly. Microwave another 45 seconds and stir again. Repeat this process until chocolate is completely melted. The reason i use 45 second intervals is to be sure the chocolate does not scorch. It is really easy to burn chocolate in the microwave! follow instructions above for pouring into pan.

VARIATIONS:
You can change this recipe up many different ways, just remember you need a total of 22 oz of morsels. It could be white chocolate and peanut butter, you could even stir in one cup peanuts or pecans. Maybe some dried cranberries. The possibilities are endless my friends, have fun experimenting!
