Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Green food coloring (few drops, to desired color)

Optional Mix-Ins

  • Crushed candy, nuts (e.g., pecans or walnuts), popping candy, candy eyeballs, black sprinkles

Variations (Optional)

  • For vegan version: substitute with coconut condensed milk and vegan butter
  • Mint variation: add peppermint extract and small chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it to ensure easy removal and smooth fudge edges.
  2. Melt the Butter and Chocolate: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the chocolate chips constantly until smooth and fully combined, avoiding scorching.
  3. Add Sweetened Condensed Milk: Gradually pour in the sweetened condensed milk while stirring continuously to achieve a creamy, dense fudge texture.
  4. Stir in Vanilla and Food Coloring: Remove the pan from heat, then add vanilla extract. Mix in green food coloring drop by drop until you reach the desired wicked witch green shade.
  5. Incorporate Optional Add-Ins: Fold in any nuts, candy pieces, or other mix-ins gently to keep the fudge smooth with bursts of texture.
  6. Chill and Set: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm. Cut into bite-sized squares before serving.

Notes

  • Use good-quality chocolate chips or baking chocolate for best flavor and texture.
  • Stir constantly when melting to avoid lumps and burning.
  • Add green food coloring gradually to control the intensity of the color.
  • Bring butter and condensed milk to room temperature for a smoother blend.
  • If fudge is not firm enough after chilling, refrigerate for longer to set properly.
  • Use a sharp knife warmed with hot water and wiped dry to cut clean fudge pieces.
