Since I had all those milks left over from yesterday's cupcakes, I decided to use them and make some fudge! First the cookie dough fudge:
12 tablespoons salted butter, softened
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 cups powdered sugar
1 cup chocolate chips
Line a 9-by-9-inch pan with parchment paper. In mixer, cream together butter, condensed milk, and heavy cream on medium speed. Add vanilla and mix again. Add brown sugar and mix on medium speed until all ingredients are combined, occasionally pausing to scrape down the sides. Gradually add flour and powdered sugar, continuing to pause to scrape down the sides as needed until all ingredients are combined. Stir in chocolate chips and pour fudge into prepared pan. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting and serving.
I can't even explain how good this is. It tastes like a dang chocolate chip cookie, in fudge form. Oh man. I can't.
Next, I made a peanut butter cup fudge
24 Reese's Regular Size Peanut Butter Cups ( I didn't have these, so I used the football shaped Reese's and it worked just fine)
14 oz can Sweetened Condensed Milk
3 Cups Chocolate Chips
Line an 8x8 inch pan with aluminum foil and lightly spray with cooking spray. Space 16 Reese's Cups along the bottom of the pan. In the microwave melt the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk stirring every 30 seconds so that the chocolate doesn't burn. Spread evenly over the peanut butter cups. Chop remaining 6 peanut butter cups and gently press onto the top of the chocolate. Refrigerate until set and cut into squares.
As you can see, I used a bread pan because I didn't have quite enough milk left over. But also: delicious! And both are super easy, so make it!
