Ingredients

3 cups semi sweet chocolate chips I use Ghirardelli
1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 ounce
1/4 cup butter
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1/2 cup slivered almonds

Instructions

Line 8 x 8 inch pan with parchment paper leaving an overhang. You will use this overhang to help remove the fudge from the pan.
In large microwavable bowl add chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk and butter. Cook in microwave at 50% power until chips are melted; approximately 3-5 minutes. Stir a couple of times during the cooking process. After chips are melted quickly stir in coconut and almonds.
Pour into parchment lined pan and smooth with the back side of a spoon lightly sprayed with nonstick baking spray. Refrigerate until set. Using the overhang lift fudge out of pan and place on cutting board or plate. Peel off parchment paper.

I would love to make this almond joy fudge. Looks very yummy. I was wondering if I could use margarine instead if butter? I use margarine in my regular fudge because I tried butter & the grease came to the top as it cooled. Also I do it on top of the stove instead of microwave & let it come to a boil & let it boil for exactly boil for 10 minutes & then pour it over the things in the bowl like the chocolate, nuts & margarine. Do you think I can do your recipe like that.?

  Not sure, Carol! I am reluctant to give my opinion on that when I have not tested it. Please let me us know if you try!

Oh My: This is good stuffI THINK OF a decadent fudge!.. SO EASY, just me and the microwave!. I followed the recipe exactly but next time, and there will be many next times: I will cut the butter in half. Other than that it is smooth, just soft and wonderful

Hi . Does the fudge need to be refrigerated after it’s done? I will it keep on the counter covered?

  Store in an airtight container on the countertop for 7-10 days.
