Here’s my favorite recipe for Coffee Fudge:
☕ Coffee Fudge Recipe ☕
Ingredients
1 cup chopped pecans
18 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons strong brewed coffee (room temperature)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1⁄8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
First, line a pan, eight inches square,
and butter that foil with fanciful flair.
Unleash the pecans in a pie plate with pride,
microwave them on high—give a stir every side.
Dance for four minutes (but only in place!),
then set them aside with a nut-lover’s grace.
Gather your chips, and the milk in one bowl,
plus coffee and spice for a treat on a roll!
Energize all with a zap one-five-O,
then stir it until it begins to flow.
Call in vanilla! The pecans may enter,
then stir up some joy like a fudgey inventor.
All of it now must be spread in your pan,
with haste and delight, like a fudge-making fan.
Cover and chill in the fridge for a while—
two hours of waiting, then serve with a smile.
Hack it in squares, one inch is the rule,
they're ready for snacking at work, home, or school!
Encase them, but leave them out on display—
your fudge will bring cheer the National Fudge Day way!
