ingredients and supplies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You need only four ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Semi-sweet chocolate chips<\/strong>. You'll need 2 \u2154 cups. This is 16 ounces, or more than a 12 ounce bag, so be sure to get either two of the regular size bags or the larger size bag<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sweetened condensed milk.<\/strong> You'll need a 14 ounce can. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mini pretzels<\/strong>. You'll need about 25 pretzels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Course sea salt.<\/strong> For sprinkling on top. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You'll also need a few supplies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

8-inch square baking pan<\/a><\/strong>. If you only have a 9-inch square pan, that works too, but the fudge will be thinner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Non-stick foil.<\/a><\/strong> You may also use parchment paper or lightly-greased foil. <\/p>\n\n\n

how to make chocolate pretzel fudge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

step 1: Prepare the pan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Grease your baking pan with cooking spray or butter OR line with parchment or non-stick foil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

step 2: Melt your chocolate and condensed milk. <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To microwave your fudge, place the chocolate chips and condensed milk in a microwave safe bowl. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microwave for 90 seconds at 70 percent power. Use the residual heat to stir the mixture well until the chocolate mixture is fully melted and smooth. If necessary, microwave for additional 15 second intervals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make on the stove-top, melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler or in a bowl on top of a saucepan of simmering water. Melt about \u00be of the way, remove from heat, and stir until fully melted. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n

step 3: pour into the baking pan <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pour the mixture evenly into the baking pan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place the mini pretzels on top of the fudge. You may be able to fit 4 to 5 across and down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sprinkle two to three pinches coarse sea salt over the fudge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let set until firm, several hours, and cut into squares. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Makes 20 to 25 pieces. <\/p>\n\n\n

can I substitute evaporated milk for the sweetened condensed milk?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Eek! No! This recipe calls for sweetened condensed milk, which is a great shortcut for easy fudge because it allows you to skip the candy-making stage of creating a sugar syrup. However, evaporated milk is not the same thing, and it cannot be used as a substitute.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"salted<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Store this chocolate pretzel fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 10 days or in the freezer, well wrapped in wax paper or foil in an airtight container, for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n
