Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped Reese’s cups
- 1 cup crushed Butterfinger bars
- Optional: Sea salt for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Your Pan
Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later. - Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract. - Fold in the Candy
Gently fold in half of the chopped Reese’s cups and Butterfinger pieces, reserving the rest for the topping. - Pour and Spread
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. - Add the Toppings
Sprinkle the remaining Reese’s cups and Butterfinger pieces evenly over the top of the fudge, pressing them lightly into the surface. For a touch of contrast, sprinkle with sea salt if desired. - Chill and Set
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until fully set. Once firm, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into bite-sized squares. - Serve and Enjoy
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tips for Perfect Fudge
- Use Milk or Dark Chocolate: Swap the semi-sweet chips for milk or dark chocolate to suit your taste preferences.
- Customize Your Mix-Ins: Try adding crushed pretzels, mini marshmallows, or other favorite candies for a unique twist.
- Double the Recipe: For larger gatherings, simply double the ingredients and use a 9×13-inch pan.
