Salted Caramel Fudge
Author: 
Recipe type: dessert
 
Ingredients
  • 12 ounces good dark chocolate (Ghiradelli is my favorite)
  • ½ stick of REAL butter
  • 5 ounce can of evaporated milk
  • ½ jar of marshmallow creme
  • tsp of vanilla
  • Salted caramel topping:
  • one stick butter
  • one cup white sugar
  • one cup brown sugar
  • ⅛ tsp. salt
  • one tsp. baking soda
  • Kosher salt for sprinkling
Instructions
  1. To make fudge: Melt chocolate, butter, and milk in a double boiler (I used a glass bowl over a medium sauce pan- works fine)
  2. Once melted, continue cooking for about five minutes, stirring constantly.
  3. Turn off the heat and immediately add marshmallow creme and vanilla.
  4. Pour into a glass, rectangle baking dish (8x8 or 9x9) and let set- at least four hours.
  5. To make salted caramel topping:
  6. Melt one stick of butter with one cup of brown sugar and one cup of white sugar and ⅛ tsp of salt.
  7. Bring to a boil and boil for 4 minutes, boiling constantly.
  8. Turn off the heat and add one tsp. baking soda. (The caramel will sort of bubble up, so be careful!)
  9. Spoon the caramel over the hardened fudge. (The hot caramel will re-melt the fudge a bit, so don't cut it yet.)
  10. I sprinkled Kosher salt over half and lightly pressed it in.
  11. Let the caramel harden over night, in the fridge if you like.
