Almost-Instant Walnut Fudge

My housemates and I had a house event last night called "Share a Skill." The premise was that each person had to teach the other six house members a skill they had in 10-15 minutes. I learned how to make a journal, plan out my life, make pizza dough, write my name in chinese, play guitar and tap dance—sort of, I'm a horrible dancer—in just under a few hours. It was wonderful. I showed the others how to whip up this easy fudge recipe. Its pretty great for something that only takes ten minutes. I've used it as a last-minute stocking stuffer in the past. All you need is:

11 ounces of your favorite dark chocolate
14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
2 cups of your favorite nuts, crushed or chopped
a pinch of salt
9x9 inch pan with tinfoil covering the insides and buttered or sprayed with Pam.


All you have to do is heat the chocolate, condensed milk, butter and salt in a pot until everything is melted together and smoothe. Then add the nuts—I used walnuts because they were out of pistachios— and quickly pour into the prepared pan. Smoothe the top of the mixture and set in the fridge for at least an hour. Then enjoy!
