This is from a REALLY old edition of Reader's Digest. I request this for my birthday instead of a cake. I think it is divine. Very rich though, beware! I usually omit the nuts and it still turns out just fine. (Cook time is chill time)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups pecans or 1 1/2 cups walnuts, chopped
16 (1 ounce) squares baker's semi-sweet chocolate (2 pkgs)
1 (300 ml) can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
Directions:
1. Spread nuts on cookie sheet and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes to toast; cool.
2. Melt chocolate with milk in large microwaveable bowl in microwave on HIGH 2 to 3 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
3. Stir in vanilla and nuts. Spread in foil-lined 8 inch (20 cm) square pan.
4. Chill 2 hours or until firm. Cut into squares.
5. VARIATIONS: PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE - Omit nuts. Drop 1/2 cup (125 mL) peanut butter by teaspoonfuls on top of fudge. Swirl with knife to marble.
6. WHITE CHOCOLATE LAYERED FUDGE - Prepare fudge as directed using 3/4 cup (175 mL) nuts, 1 pkg (225 g) Baker's Semi-Sweet Chocolate, 3/4 cup (175 mL) sweetened condensed milk and 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla. Spread in prepared pan. Melt 1 pkg (170 g) Baker's White Chocolate. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup (125 mL) sweetened condensed milk. Spread over dark chocolate layer. Chill as directed.
