Crockpot Monday: Fudge

January is nearly gone! Can you believe it? It's been quite a month around here... my oldest turned 19 and went to a residential program, my youngest turned 18 and started college auditions...as for me? I've just been trying to keep up! Today we're all snowbound and trying to mentally prepare ourselves for possibly record breaking cold this week. I think we need some comfort food....like fudge!

Fudge:
Ingredients:

3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 Tablespoon salted butter
Cooking spray to spray down the crock
Parchment paper or non-stick foil to line a 9 x 9 baking pan

Directions:
Use a 4-quart slow cooker. Spray the crock well with cooking spray. Add everything into the crockpot. Cover and cook on high for about 1 hour, or on low for about 2 hours. Stir every 30 minutes. Once the chocolate has lost its form and can be stirred into a liquid state, spread it out onto a lined 9 x 9 baking pan.

Chill in the refrigerator overnight (or at least 4 hours) before cutting into bite-sized squares.

Then, curl up with a blanket, a book or good movie, and enjoy! Stay warm out there, my friends!
