Ingredients
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Irish cream liqueur
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 Pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
Prepare an 8x8-inch square baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, leaving a few inches of overhang on two sides for easy removal later. Lightly grease the parchment paper with butter or non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and unsalted butter.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and stir constantly until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Be cautious not to let the mixture scorch.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and gently stir in the Irish cream liqueur, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Sift the powdered sugar into the mixture and stir until smooth. The mixture will thicken noticeably as you combine the ingredients.
Step 6
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using a spatula. Tap the pan gently on the counter to settle the mixture and remove any air bubbles.
Step 7
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for 1-2 hours, then transfer it to the refrigerator to set for at least 4 hours or, ideally, overnight.
Step 8
Once the fudge is fully set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out of the pan.
Step 9
Cut the fudge into small squares using a sharp knife. Wipe the blade clean between cuts for neat edges.
Step 10
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve chilled or at room temperature as preferred.
