Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Fudge

Prep Time2 hrs 15 mins
Cook Time15 mins
Total Time2 hrs 30 mins
Servings: 8 inch square pan

Ingredients

  • 2 oz. quality baking chocolate, chopped fine
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 Tbsp. Jim Beam Bourbon
  • 1 Tbsp. pure vanilla
  • 2 cups toasted pecan pieces

Instructions

  • Cut 12-inch length extra-wide heavy-duty aluminum foil; fold edges back to form 7 1/2-inch width. With folded sides facing down, fit foil securely into bottom and up sides of 8-inch-square baking pan, allowing excess to overhang pan sides. Spray foil with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Toss chocolates, baking soda, and salt in medium heatproof bowl until baking soda is evenly distributed. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Set bowl over 4-quart saucepan containing 2 cups simmering water. Stir with rubber spatula until chocolate is almost fully melted and few small pieces remain, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Remove bowl from heat and continue to stir until chocolate is fully melted and mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes. Stir in pecan. Transfer fudge to prepared pan and spread in even layer with spatula. Refrigerate until set, about 2 hours. Remove fudge from pan using foil and cut into squares.
