Fudge is a Christmas season must! If you are not a baker, give fudge making a try. It is easy and always a hit. You could make up a variety of different fudges and put together tins for gift giving. Check out my recipes for Grammy’s Christmas Fudge (my favorite) and peanut butter fudge.
This creamy fudge only has 7 ingredients, which are likely in your pantry. The addition of cinnamon gives a nice spicy contrast to the richness of the chocolate. Eating cinnamon is supposed to lower blood pressure and cholesterol, and dark chocolate had anti-oxidants, so this is basically health food.
Cinnamon Chocolate Fudge
Yields about 40 pieces (depending on size)
Ingredients:
1 14 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk
1 lb. bittersweet chocolate chips (60% cacao)
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3 tbs. butter
1/2 tsp. salt
Directions:
Line a 8 x 8” baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium glass bowl or stainless steel bowl, add all ingredients. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering hot water. Mix until the ingredients all melt.
Pour the melted mixture into the lined pan and refrigerate overnight. Cut into pieces the next day.
