Ingredients

• 1 can (14 oz) Sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups Dark chocolate chips
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Slivered almonds
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt flakes (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk and dark chocolate chips. Cook over low to medium heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

In a separate saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Pour in the heavy cream and cook, stirring frequently, for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly into a caramel sauce.

Step 4

Remove the caramel from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Allow it to cool for a minute or two before folding it into the chocolate mixture. Stir the two mixtures together until well combined.

Step 5

Fold in the slivered almonds, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the fudge mixture.

Step 6

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly using a spatula. Optionally, sprinkle sea salt flakes over the top for a sweet and salty finish.

Step 7

Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm enough to slice.

Step 8

Once chilled, lift the fudge out of the dish using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut it into 16 equal pieces (or smaller, if desired).

Step 9

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
