Fool's Fudge: This is one of the most basic and fool proof recipe I know of.
1 12 oz. bag chocolate chips
1 can sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated!!!!)
Melt the chocolate chips on low heat in either a double boiler or microwave.
A double boiler is two small pans where on fits inside the other. I often use a mixing bowl that fits into a small saucepan full of water.
As the water boils, it melts the chips. Always stir the chocolate constantly as it burns VERY easily.
If you do it by microwave, try using it on medium power in increments of 30 seconds.
Once chips are melted completely pour in the sweetened condensed milk.
Add completely and pour into a buttered 8"x8" pan.
I usually like to add nuts, some sort of extract like vanilla in a 1 tsp. size., candied cherries, sweetened coconut, etc.
Dream of endless combinations.
This should be refrigerated for a few hours until it hardens completely and then cut into 1' squares. Or eat it in the pan with a spoon.
