Ingredients
- 3 cups semi sweet chocolate chips I use Ghirardelli
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 ounce
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds
Instructions
- Line 8 x 8 inch pan with parchment paper leaving an overhang. You will use this overhang to help remove the fudge from the pan.
- In large microwavable bowl add chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk and butter. Cook in microwave at 50% power until chips are melted; approximately 3-5 minutes. Stir a couple of times during the cooking process. After chips are melted quickly stir in coconut and almonds.
- Pour into parchment lined pan and smooth with the back side of a spoon lightly sprayed with nonstick baking spray. Refrigerate until set. Using the overhang lift fudge out of pan and place on cutting board or plate. Peel off parchment paper.

I would love to make this almond joy fudge. Looks very yummy. I was wondering if I could use margarine instead if butter? I use margarine in my regular fudge because I tried butter & the grease came to the top as it cooled. Also I do it on top of the stove instead of microwave & let it come to a boil & let it boil for exactly boil for 10 minutes & then pour it over the things in the bowl like the chocolate, nuts & margarine. Do you think I can do your recipe like that.?

Not sure, Carol! I am reluctant to give my opinion on that when I have not tested it. Please let me us know if you try!

Oh My: This is good stuffI THINK OF a decadent fudge!.. SO EASY, just me and the microwave!. I followed the recipe exactly but next time, and there will be many next times: I will cut the butter in half. Other than that it is smooth, just soft and wonderful

Hi . Does the fudge need to be refrigerated after it’s done? I will it keep on the counter covered?
Beth Pierce
Store in an airtight container on the countertop for 7-10 days.
