How to Make French Silk Fudge

  1. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, and 1 cup superfine sugar (or granulated sugar processed to a fine consistency).
  2. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir well.
  3. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted (about 2-3 minutes total).
  4. Remove from microwave and whisk in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder until fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  5. Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the fudge out later.
  6. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 60 minutes, or until firm.
  8. Once firm, lift the fudge out of the dish using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy!
