How to Make Chocolate Butterscotch Fudge

  1. In a microwave-safe 2-cup glass bowl, combine 6 ounces of butterscotch chips and 1/3 cup (about 4 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk.
  2. Microwave on high for 45-60 seconds, stirring until melted and smooth. Set aside.
  3. In a separate microwave-safe 1-quart glass bowl, combine 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips, the remaining sweetened condensed milk (approximately 10 ounces), and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  4. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
  5. Stir in the chopped walnuts (if using).
  6. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  7. Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. Pour the melted butterscotch mixture over the chocolate layer and spread evenly.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until the fudge is completely firm.
  10. Once firm, lift the fudge from the pan using the foil overhang.
  11. Peel off the foil and cut into squares.
  12. Store covered in the refrigerator.
