Ingredients
For the fudge
Step-by-Step Method
Prepare the tray
Cover a 20x20 cm square tray with wax paper; Move it over the edges so you can easily lift it later.
Melt the chocolate
Place chocolate, condensed milk and butter in a medium-sized pot. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth; Do not boil.
Add flavoring and vanilla
Remove from heat. Add vanilla extract and mint flavoring. Increase the mint flavor by first adding 2-3 drops and tasting.
Add optional color
If you are using it, add 2-3 drops of green food coloring and mix quickly until the mixture becomes a single color.
Pour onto the tray and level it
Transfer the mixture to the prepared tray. Level the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle crushed mint particles on top and press gently.
Cool
When it reaches room temperature, put it in the refrigerator and leave it for at least 2 hours until it hardens.
Slice and serve
Grab the wax paper and remove it. With a sharp knife, slice into 64 small squares; If the knife sticks, warm it with hot water and dry it.
