Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Wooden spoon or silicone spatula
  • 9x9 inch square baking dish
  • Parchment paper
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, mix the granulated sugar and unsweetened cocoa powder thoroughly.
  3. Add the unsalted butter and heavy cream to the saucepan. Stir the mixture over medium heat until the butter melts completely.
  4. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
  5. Once boiling, let the mixture cook for 5 minutes without stirring.
  6. After 5 minutes, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly.
  7. Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and vanilla extract to the saucepan. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  8. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  9. Allow the fudge to set at room temperature for about 2 hours or until firm.

Notes

For a shiny finish, let the fudge cool down slowly at room temperature rather than refrigerating it.
