Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk ((not evaporated milk!))
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups pecans, (roughly chopped)
  • 50 Kraft Caramels, (unwrapped)
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instruction

  • Line a 9x13 inch pan with parchment paper; be sure the parchment paper comes up the sides of the pan for maximum coverage
  • In a saucepan, on very low heat, melt the chocolate chips with the sweetened condensed milk and salt until smooth.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and 1 ½ cups of the chopped pecans.
  • Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and using a rubber spatula, press the fudge into the pan; be sure to evenly spread the fudge over the surface of the pan, including the corners. Set aside.
  • In a large stainless steel bowl, over a sauce pan of simmering water, heat the caramels and milk together until melted and smooth.
  • Evenly smear the caramel over the top of the fudge.
  • Top with the remaining chopped pecans.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.
  • Keep fudge stored in the refrigerator to avoid melting.
