Instructions
- Line an 8x8 baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Add the chocolate chips and condensed milk to a small sauce pan and cook over low heat, stirring often, until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the peppermint extract. Continue stirring until the mixture is thick and glossy.
- Spread the mixture into the prepared dish and sprinkle the top with the crushed candy canes. Lightly press the candy canes to help them adhere to the fudge.
- Place the fudge in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.
- Remove from the pan and slice into 36 small pieces.
- Store in the fridge for up to 1 month.
Notes
- Be sure to use sweetened condensed milk and not evaporated milk or the fudge will not set.
- We prefer to use a high quality chocolate chip, such as Ghiradelli, since there are so few ingredients. The best quality you can afford will result in a better finished product.
- If you prefer your fudge with less of a peppermint flavor, swap the peppermint extract for vanilla. The only peppermint flavor will be the candy canes on top.
