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.

Instructions

Line a 8" tin or flexible tray with baking parchment.
Break up the chocolate and put it in a microwave-safe jug or bowl. Pour the condensed milk over the chocolate.
Put the jug in the microwave on half power for 30 second bursts, until the chocolate starts to melt. Give it a good stir each time. Do not boil, as this will spoil the texture.
When the chocolate has nearly all melted, give it all a good stir until smooth. The warmth of the mixture will melt the rest of the chocolate.
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.
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.

Be careful not to overheat the chocolate because this will spoil the fudge. Be patient, as it really doesn't take very long.
