Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 ml) semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup (240 ml) milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup (240 ml) chopped Butterfinger candy bars
- 1 cup (240 ml) chopped Reeses Peanut Butter Cups
Binding Ingredients:
- 1 can (14 ounces or 396 grams) sweetened condensed milk
Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the workspace by lining an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring extra paper hangs over the edges for effortless removal.
- Create a smooth chocolate base by combining semisweet and milk chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter in a medium saucepan. Melt ingredients over low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture transforms into a glossy, uniform consistency.
- Remove the chocolate mixture from heat and infuse with vanilla extract, stirring to incorporate the aromatic flavor.
- Enhance the fudge by gently folding half of the chopped Butterfinger and Reeses Peanut Butter Cups into the melted chocolate, distributing the candy pieces evenly throughout the mixture.
- Transfer the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula to spread it uniformly and create a smooth surface.
- Garnish the fudge by scattering the remaining chopped Butterfinger and Reeses Peanut Butter Cups across the top, delicately pressing them into the surface to ensure they adhere.
- Chill the fudge in the refrigerator for approximately 2 hours, or until it becomes completely firm and set.
- Once solidified, utilize the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge from the dish, then slice into bite-sized squares using a sharp knife.
- Serve and enjoy the decadent, candy-studded chocolate treat.
Notes
- Prevent Chocolate Burning: Melt chocolate using a double boiler or low heat to ensure smooth, glossy texture without scorching.
- Candy Crushing Hack: Freeze Butterfinger and Reeses before chopping for cleaner, more precise cuts and less messy crumbling.
- Flavor Customization: Swap candies with similar textured alternatives like Snickers or Crunch bars for unique taste variations.
- Storage Secret: Keep fudge refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one week, separating layers with parchment paper to maintain freshness.
