MEXICAN SKILLET FUDGE



Mexican Skillet Fudge image

This recipe came from a women's magazine around 1960. It's been a family signature since a friend gave it to momma that many years ago. So far as I know, I'm the only one who still makes it... which is a shame! Friends who don't even like fudge ask me when I'm making it again. At church I'm known as 'the Fudge Lady' and it's...

Provided by Nancy Carlson

Categories     Chocolate

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 c white sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp sea salt (or regular salt)
3 Tbsp butter
1 c evaporated milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
7 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 c mini marshmallows

Steps:

  • 1. Prep: butter one or two 7x11 biscut pan(s), or whatever size pan you have available. Obviously, the larger the pan, the thinner the finished product (which could be a good thing!). (update: I like to sprinkle a drop or two of water in the pan, then line it with plastic wrap, instead of the butter. Easier to remove the fudge.
  • 2. In an electric skillet, add the sugar, cinnamon and salt. Stir to combine. Add butter and milk, then stir again. Set skillet temp to the mark between 320 and 350. Stir frequently.
  • 3. When the syrup begins to bubble around the heat ring set digital timer to 5 minutes. Stir constantly, especially around the heat ring. I use a silicon spatula.
  • 4. After 5 minutes, turn temp to warm. Add vanilla. Stir. Add marshmallows and chips. Stir until both are melted. Remember to turn off the skillet!
  • 5. Pour (or spoon) into prepared pan. Let cool until almost set, then cut into desired size.

In a baking dish sprayed with Pam, place half of the cheese as bottom layer, then pout the sauce over the top, add the rest of the cheese. Bake 30 minutes. Let cool, cut into 1 inch squares and serve Variations: use 1 lb of all cheddar, you can also increase the salsa to 3/4 cup and cook it longer (45 minutes to an hour) This is much better if you get the blocks of cheese and grate it yourself, however in a pinch you could buy the pre shredded

MEXICAN CHOCOLATE FUDGE



Mexican Chocolate Fudge image

I suddenly came up with this idea and thought, "of course someone did this already!" it makes too much sense. i searched and search but no luck. so i took a chance, really it was a no-brainer, and it came out great!

Provided by lululovesfood

Categories     Dessert

Time 7m

Yield 40 pieces, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups chocolate chips
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 round brick of mexican hot cocoa (abuelita or ybarra)
1/2-1 cup of chopped pecans (optional)

Steps:

  • first line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper and chop the pecans if you are using them.
  • then crush the chocolate brick. you can use a blender or food processor. i simply put mine into a sandwich bag and gave a whack at it. i had some frustration built up, lol!
  • after it's crushed, in a medium, glass, microwave safe bowl, add all the chocolate and sweetened condensed milk. microwave for 1 minute then stir.
  • microwave again for 30 secs or 1 more minute (depending on the temp of your micro) and then stir.
  • add in the pecans and vanilla at this point and give it another good stir. if your chocolate is too thick, use a tablespoon of milk to smooth it out. it will seem grainy but the 2 chocolates will marry as it rests.
  • pour mixture into the pan and set in the fridge for about an hour, give or take.
  • when it has become more firm and sliceable, cut into 1 inch pieces. enjoy!
