Fudge Rounds Ingredients
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts or sprinkles (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter. Stir constantly to prevent burning and ensure the mixture melts evenly.
- Melt and Mix: Continue stirring until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture becomes smooth and glossy. This will take about 5 minutes.
- Add Flavorings: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor depth.
- Fold in Optional Add-Ins: Gently fold in chopped nuts or sprinkles if you desire added texture and taste variations.
- Prepare Molds: Line a mini muffin tin or silicone mold with paper liners to make removal easier and ensure neat servings.
- Fill Molds: Spoon the chocolate mixture into each liner, filling them about three-quarters full to allow room for setting.
- Chill: Refrigerate the filled molds for at least 1 hour until the fudge rounds are firm and set.
- Serve: Carefully remove the fudge rounds from the molds and serve chilled or at room temperature for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of espresso powder or a dash of cinnamon to the chocolate mixture.
- You can use dark, milk, or white chocolate chips depending on your taste preference.
- Store fudge rounds in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week to maintain freshness.
