OHH!! Holiday edition recipes! Can it be that time already? I always go for easy and tasty recipes for the busy Thanksgiving and Christmas season, and this is one of my favorites. In fact, when I pulled out this recipe to copy here, my eldest daughter jumped up and down, clapped and said that she LOVED-this-recipe- could-I-make-it-today-please?
Layered Mint Fudge
1 1/2 tsp butter, softened
2 cups chocolate chips
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
2 tsp. vanilla
1 cup white chocolate chips
3 tsp peppermint extract
1-2 drops green food coloring
Line an 8x8 or 9x9 square pan with foil and butter. Melt chocolate chips in 1 cup sweetened milk. Cook and stir for 5-6 minutes, until smooth and silky. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Stir for 3 minutes. Pour 1/2 into lined pan. Refrigerate 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate in 1/4 cup milk in same manner. Add peppermint and food color. Spread over cooled layer of chocolate. Chill 10 more minutes. Reheat first pan of chocolate and then pour over green layer. Chill until firm. Cut into shapes and serve.
This looks wonderful! I have a chocolate peanut butter fudge which is very similar to this. I will have to post it for the holidays! I love mint chocolate! Thanks for the great recipe!!!
I love how simple this recipe looks! And the fact that your daughter loves it makes me determined to try it out. :)
