Ingredients

1 can (14 oz) condensed milk - 400 g / 300 ml
14 oz chocolate, broken into pieces - dark, milk or a mix. If using white chocolate, increase the quantity to 17.5 oz / 500 g.
sprinkles - optional

Instructions

Line a 8" tin or flexible tray with baking parchment.
Break up the chocolate and put it in a tough, heatproof jug that will stand comfortably in the slow cooker. Pour the condensed milk over the chocolate.
1 can (14 oz) condensed milk, 14 oz chocolate, broken into pieces
Boil a kettle of water. Stand the jug inside the slow cooker. Then pour the boiling water into the cooker, around the jug, to about two thirds of the way up the jug, Don't splash any water into the jug!
Set the cooker to low and leave it uncovered for about 30–40 minutes. Then stir well. If the chocolate has not fully melted, leave it for a bit longer. Return and stir again until you have a thick, well combined mixture with no lumps.
Pour the melted fudge mixture into the prepared mould. Smooth the surface. If you want to top the fudge with sprinkles, spread them evenly over the surface and press in gently with the back of a spoon.

Let the fudge cool and then place the tray in the fridge to set. This will take at least a couple of hours.
Turn the fudge out of the mould and cut into squares. Store in an airtight container in a cool place.

Notes

The fudge will keep in an air tight container in the fridge for several weeks, so there is no need to freeze it.

Take it out of the fridge and bring it up to room temperature before serving.

Hints and Tips

The recipe will produce a solid, melt in the mouth creamy fudge. Lower cocoa solid chocolate will produce a softer fudge.
If you need to firm it up, cut into squares and spread out on a chopping board. Then leave the fudge uncovered in the fridge overnight.
Regular supermarket bar chocolate works well. You do not need anything expensive, fancy or chocolate chips here.
Take care not to get any water in the jug and do not cover the slow cooker.
