Chocolate Pistachio Fudge

Ingredients
175 | grams of chopped dark chocolate |
200 | grams of condensed milk |
1 | tablespoon of unsalted butter |
75 | grams of pistachhio |
a pinch of salt |
Preparation
1. | Put the chopped chocolate, condensed milk, salt and butter in a heavy bottom pan on low heat. Stir to melt. In the meanwhile, put the nuts in a ziplock bag and bash them with a rolling pin, to get coarse pieces. |
2. | Add the broken nuts to the chocolate mixture. Stir well. Remove from flame. Pour the mixture into a 10 X 6 inch tray. Patch and smooth the top using a spatula or back of a spoon. |
3. | Allow the fudge to cool to room temperature. Using a knife, gently mark the fudge with the grid of lines - depending on how small or big pieces you want. Move the tray to refrigerator to set. This will take about 15-20 minutes. |
4. | Once set, remove from refrigerator and just gently snap-break on the lines you had made earlier. These can be stored in freezer and eaten straight out without thawing. |
Notes
Source – Nigella
Use any nut you want – almonds, cashew, hazelnuts, etc
The choice of tray to set depends upon how thick or thin you want the fudge to be. I have made them thinner or thicker depending on my mood.
Don’t bash the nuts too hard or you will tear the ziplock bag.
