Notes
- Sweetened condensed milk comes in different measurements depending on where you are. In the US, a can is labeled as 14 oz by weight. Elsewhere, it's marked as 300 mL by volume. Don't worry, though; both cans contain the same amount of milk. The difference is due to how weight and volume are measured – ounces for weight and milliliters for volume – and these measurements can vary based on the density of the product.
- I love to use half semisweet and half milk chocolate. I find this creates a really delicious flavor that's perfectly rich and chocolatey in line with the creamy texture. You could do all semi-sweet chocolate, but this makes a very rich dark chocolate flavor.
- Avoid overheating the chocolate to keep it from becoming grainy.
- For a stovetop method, melt the ingredients together over a double boiler, stirring constantly.
- To achieve a smooth surface on your fudge, use pressing motions with a spatula instead of spreading back and forth.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
- To add a topping like sprinkles, sea salt, nuts, or mini chocolate chips, sprinkle it over the fudge while it's still warm, before setting.
