Fudge

What do you have better to do then make fudge when you wake up in the morning and find 2" of snow blanketed across your front yard? Well, make fudge and pumpkin chocolate chunk blondies and a LARGE cup of coffee. Make sure you get your chocolate fix so that when you come to the reality that for the next 4 months you'll have to get up 30 minutes earlier every morning so that you can wrap the kids in hats, scarfs, mittens, snow pants, jackets and boots you'll be able to handle it. It is very important to be properly caffinated and sugared when you come to such realizations.

Fudge (Recipe from My Baking Addiction)

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup chopped nuts (I used walnuts)
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Line a 9" or 8" square pan with tin foil so you can easily lift the fudge out to cut it into chunks. Set aside.

In a sauce pan over low heat, add chocolate, sweetened condensed milk and salt and stir until all chips are melted. Remove from heat and stir in chopped nuts and vanilla extract. Spread evenly into foil covered pan and chill for 3 hours until fudge is firm. Remove from foil and place on a cutting board and cut into desired size squares.

Store covered in the refrigerator.
