Ingredients

The following ingredients have 18 Servings
  • 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips ((can also use milk chocolate))
  • 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 11 ounce package caramel bits ((I used Kraft))
  • 2 Tablespoons heavy cream
  • sea salt or maldon ((if desired))

Instruction

  • Line a 8×8″ baking dish with parchment paper. Lightly butter and set aside. Combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk and butter in a large microwave bowl. Microwave for one minute at 50% power. Stir and then microwave in 30 second increments until the chocolate has melted. It took mine about 2 minutes. Be careful not to over cook or it will be come grainy.
  • Quickly pour into prepared baking dish and press down with a spatula. Refrigerate until set.
  • To add the caramel layer (make sure the fudge has hardened), microwave the caramel bits and cream in a microwave bowl for 1 minute. Stir and microwave an additional 30 seconds if needed. Stir until smooth and then pour over the chocolate fudge. Tap the pan on the counter, so it evenly distributes. Top with sea salt immediately, if desired.
  • Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Then slice into squares. I find it easiest to cut with a plastic knife.
