This recipe combines the tangy sweetness of fruit jelly with the creamy richness of milk to create a delightful and easy-to-make fudge.
Ingredients:
- 1 (3 oz) package fruit-flavored gelatin (any flavor you like, such as strawberry, raspberry, or cherry)
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions:
- Bloom the Gelatin: In a medium bowl, combine the fruit-flavored gelatin with the boiling water. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
- Combine Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually pour the gelatin mixture into the condensed milk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
- Chill and Set: Pour the mixture into a greased 8×8 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with chopped nuts, if using. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is completely set.
- Cut and Serve: Cut the fudge into squares and enjoy!
Tips:
- For a more intense fruit flavor, use 2 packages of gelatin.
- Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
- Get creative with flavors! Try different fruit flavors, or use a combination of flavors.
- For a richer fudge, use heavy cream instead of some of the condensed milk.
- Decorate with sprinkles, chocolate chips, or other toppings.
