peanut & chocolate fudge

Ingredients:

400g dark chocolate (70% min cocoa)
397ml sweetened condensed milk
1tsp vanilla extract
100g salted peanuts

Method:

1 - Chop the chocolate, and place in a bain marie to melt.

2 - Add the vanilla and the condensed milk to the chocolate and stir.

3 - Line an 8” square tin in baking paper and pour the fudge mix in.

4 - Roughly chop the peanuts and sprinkle over the top of the fudge, lightly pushing into the top.

5 - Place the fudge into the fridge for at least 2 hours, before removing and slicing.

Top Tip: * You can swap out the peanuts for dried fruit, or other nuts. Likewise you add some alcohol to the fudge too: rum and raisin works especially well.

I like to drizzle melted chocolate over the top for added decoration, too.
