Microwave Safe Bowl
9x13-inch Baking Pan
Saucepan
Chocolate Fudge
- 4 cups chocolate chips (I used semi-sweet, but you can use milk chocolate if you prefer)
- 14.5 ounces sweetened condensed milk 1 can
- 3 Tablespoons butter
Topping
- 1 cup evaporated milk canned
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 egg yolks slightly beaten
- ½ cup butter 1 stick
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1¾ cup coconut
- 1¼ cups chopped pecans
- 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips (for drizzle on top of fudge), optional
Fudge
Pour chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter into a microwaveable bowl.
Microwave for 45 seconds, then remove and stir. Continue microwaving in 30 second intervals (stirring in between each one) until mixture is smooth.
Pour chocolate chip mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13" pan and let it cool.
Topping
Mix evaporated milk, sugar, egg yolks, margarine and vanilla together in a sauce pan.
Stir constantly over medium heat until it comes to a slow boil.
Cook, stirring constantly until it thickens - about 10 to 11 minutes (it must be cooked that long).
Remove from heat and stir in coconut and pecans.
Cool frosting before spreading on fudge.
You can melt semi-sweet chocolate chips and drizzle over top of topping (optional).
Serve in 1x1" squares (they're really rich, but really delicious!)
- If you are looking for an easy shortcut to this recipe, use the canned german chocolate frosting, instead of making your own.
