• 8. NOTES: In case you haven't noticed, you may find your baking chips bags are now 10 oz bags, rather than 12 oz!! My favorite tool for candy making is a long handled wooden spoon, that has a corner on it. If you don't have one, I highly recommend you get one! For deeper/thicker pieces, use an 11x7" baking dish. I prefer my chocolate straight up, so I don't add nuts -- pure chocolate heaven :) If you prefer darker chocolate, substitute dark chocolate chips for the semi-sweet. (If you use very dark chocolate, you may want to increase the amount of butter a bit.) Make cappuccino fudge by adding espresso powder or instant coffee granules in the first step. Instead of, or in addition to chopped nuts, stir in whatever you like -- cranberries, raisins, mini marshmallows, mint or cinnamon flavored baking chips,etc. Stir them in at the very end, just before spreading the mixture into the baking dish. You could also garnish with things like crushed candy cane, toffee chips, chopped candy (Andes mints, peanut butter cups, etc), or simply use finely ground nut dust, or good quality (Folgers) instant coffee granules, even kosher salt. Whatever you like! *We are dairy intolerant, so I substitute Silk brand soy creamer for the evaporated milk.
