Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups (255g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk , divided
  • 2 pinches salt , divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract , divided
  • 1 ¾ cups (298g) white chocolate chips
  • Red food coloring
  • 36 conversation heart candies

Instructions

  • Line a 9x9” pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
  • Place chocolate chips and half the can of sweetened condensed milk (5 liquid ounces; just over 1/2 cup) in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture melts together and becomes smooth. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract and one pinch of salt.
  • Quickly pour and spread in prepared pan. Chill for 30 minutes.
  • When chilling is up, remove pan from refrigerator. Add white chocolate chips and remaining sweetened condensed milk to a clean medium saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture melts together and becomes smooth. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, one pinch of salt, and red food coloring (about 3-4 drops for a light pink).
  • Quickly pour over chocolate layer and spread. Immediately top with conversation hearts in a 6 x 6 grid. Let cool to room temperature and then chill until set.
  • Slice into squares (1 conversation heart per square) and serve.

Notes

  • Use any flavor extract in place of the vanilla. Cherry, Strawberry, or Raspberry extract would be delicious in the pink layer.
  • Be sure to prep all your ingredients and pan before starting. Fudge making is fast!
  • Line your pan with foil or parchment for easy removal and slicing.
  • Chill the fudge to set completely.
