Ingredients
3 cups dark chocolate chips (60% cacao or higher)
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup black cocoa powder, sifted
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
Optional: Coarse sea salt or silver sprinkles for topping
Instructions
Step 1: Line an 8×8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a bit of overhang for easy removal.
Step 2: In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the dark chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk over low heat.
Step 3: Stir the mixture constantly until the chocolate is almost completely melted and the texture is smooth.
Step 4: Sift in the black cocoa powder and continue to stir until fully incorporated and no lumps remain.
Step 5: Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt until combined.
Step 6: Pour the fudge into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface with an offset spatula. Add optional toppings if desired.
Step 7: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 4 hours, or until completely set, before lifting from the pan and slicing into 25 squares.
Notes
For the darkest color, ensure you use specifically ‘Black Cocoa’. Regular cocoa will result in a brown fudge.
