Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1 14 -ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup Diamond of California chopped walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon flaked sea salt
  • 3 cups bittersweet (60% cacao) chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons whipping cream

Method

  • Line an 8-inch square pan with aluminum foil.
  • Melt the butter in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the condensed milk and stir constantly until the mixture bubbles gently at the edges, about 3 minutes.
  • Mix in the walnuts, vanilla and salt.
  • Stir in the chocolate and stir gently, just until the chocolate melts.
  • Drizzle the cream over the surface of the fudge and stir vigorously just until the fudge is smooth and glossy, but not oily.
  • (If the mixture separates and becomes oily, transfer the fudge to the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer and beat until blended.)
  • Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth with a spatula.
  • Refrigerate until firm, about 3 hours.
  • Using the foil as a guide, remove the fudge from the pan.
  • Cut the fudge evenly into 48 squares.
  • (Fudge can be made ahead and refrigerated up to two weeks ahead.)
