Time 2h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
One 11.5-ounce bag bittersweet chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Line an 8-inch square glass baking dish with parchment paper. Butter the paper and set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the condensed milk, chocolate chips, butter and salt and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, until the chocolate is completely melted. When the mixture is smooth, remove from the heat and stir in the orange zest and vanilla. Pour into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the fennel seeds. Press gently to make them stick if need be. Allow to chill completely in the refrigerator before slicing into squares, about 2 hours.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my fudge turned out grainy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This fudge is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I was intrigued by the orange and fennel combination, so I had to try this recipe. I'm so glad I did! The fudge is delicious. The flavors are perfectly balanced and the texture is smooth and creamy. I will definitely be making this again.

This orange and fennel fudge is a delightful treat! The combination of sweet and savory flavors is unique and delicious. I especially appreciate the citrusy notes from the orange and the subtle hint of anise from the fennel. The texture is smooth and
