Fudge Cayenne Food

CINNAMON-CHOCOLATE FUDGE

Steps:

• Butter the bottom and sides of an 8 by 8-inch baking pan. Line the pan with a sheet of parchment paper, about 14-inches long and 7-inches wide, allowing the excess to overhang the sides. Set aside
• In a medium glass or stainless steel bowl, combine the condensed milk, cinnamon, and vanilla. Stir in the chocolate chips and butter. Put the bowl on a saucepan of barely simmering water and mix until the chocolate chips have melted and the mixture is smooth, about 6 to 8 minutes (mixture will be thick). Using a spatula, scrape the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle with salt, if desired. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm.
• Run a warm knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the fudge. Remove the fudge to a cutting board. Peel off the parchment paper and cut the fudge into 1-inch pieces. Store refrigerated in an airtight container or freeze.

SPICY MEXICAN CHOCOLATE FUDGE

Steps:

• Line an 8 inch square pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
• Heat the chocolate and the sweetened condensed milk over medium low heat until the chocolate is melted. Be sure to keep stirring so it melts evenly.
• Add in the vanilla and the other spices. If you are concerned about the spiciness, add only 1/8 a tsp of the cayenne pepper and taste it, adding more slowly.
• After everything is thoroughly combined, immediately pour the fudge into the pan. Allow it at least four hours to set in the refrigerator.
• Remove from the pan, cut and enjoy. Store in an air-tight container outside of the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
