Dark Chocolate Peppermint Fudge

Dark Chocolate Peppermint Fudge

I double this recipe and put it in a heart-shaped silicone baking mold for Valentine’s Day! I prefer using silicone baking molds as it is easier to pop right out of the mold without having to use a cooking/baking spray.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips (such as Hershey's® Special Dark)
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure peppermint extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ½ cup crushed peppermint candies, or more to taste

Directions

Step 1
Combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, butter, peppermint extract, and salt in a large microwave-safe bowl.

Step 2
Heat in the microwave on medium-high until chips are melted, 5 to 6 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes.

Step 3
Pour chocolate mixture into an 8×8-inch silicone baking dish; top with crushed peppermint candies. Lightly press candies, using the back of a spoon, into chocolate mixture. Refrigerate until set, 1 hour.

Cook’s Note:

You can also use a greased 8×8-inch glass baking dish if you don't have a silicone baking dish.
