Butterscotch Fudge

Introduction

This butterscotch fudge is a creamy, dreamy treat that melts in your mouth. It’s incredibly easy to make using just three ingredients, and you can prepare it quickly in the microwave. No candy thermometer is needed, making it a beginner-friendly recipe perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth.

Ingredients

• 3 cups butterscotch chips (add an additional 1/4 cup if using a thin store-brand sweetened condensed milk)
• 14 ounces (1 can) sweetened condensed milk
• 1 pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Prepare the Pan: Line an 8-inch square pan with non-stick tin foil or parchment paper for easy removal of the fudge.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a large microwave-safe mixing bowl, stir together the butterscotch chips, sweetened condensed milk, and salt.
3. Microwave: Heat the mixture at 70% power for 90 seconds. Let the bowl rest in the microwave for 5 minutes to allow the heat to disperse and the chips to melt.
4. Stir: Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir slowly until the mixture is melted and smooth. If the fudge looks greasy, let it rest for 15 minutes and stir again. Repeat if necessary.
5. Chill: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer. Cover with plastic wrap or tin foil and refrigerate for about 3 hours until firm. Alternatively, you can let it set at room temperature, which may take up to 5-6 hours.
6. Cut and Serve: Once the fudge is firm, remove it from the pan, peel off the tin foil or parchment paper, and cut it into 36 small squares. Serve and enjoy!
