firecracker fudge
(1 RATING)
I got this recipe from my nieces, who in turn got it from a friend. I've made enough changes to the original that I feel OK about calling it my own. Sort of. In our family this version is the most popular. *If you can't find Mexican chocolate (it's in most grocery stores these days, in the ethnic food aisle) substitute another half, each, of the dark and milk chocolate; double the amount of cinnamon and chopped almonds.)

How To Make firecracker fudge
-
Step 1generously butter bottom and sides of a 9" x 9" glass pan. (Metal pan will work, too. I just prefer glass pans.)
-
Step 2Sprinkle the bottom of pan with red pepper flakes; about 1 Tbs, or to taste. Sprinkle course sea salt over red pepper flakes; 1 generous tsp, or to taste.
-
Step 3Break up chocolate bars into double boiler, over medium heat. Stir occasionally as they melt. About half way through the melting process, sprinkle in the cinnamon and chopped nuts.
-
Step 4When chocolate is completely melted, and all ingredients combined, pour mixture over red pepper and sea salt. Allow about an hour or so for it to set completely, before cutting into squares of whatever size you like.
