Time 2h45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
16 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped
(1) 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
2 and 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small bits
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup salted caramel sauce
1/2 cup toasted pecans, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing two of the sides to overlap. Spray the parchment - and any exposed pan - with non-stick baking spray; set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter, vanilla extract, confectioners' sugar, and salt until light and fluffy; about 2 to 3 minutes. Gradually beat in the flour, mixing just until combined. The mixture will be a little crumbly.
  • Dump the mixture into the prepared pan and spread (or press firmly, if need be) it into an even layer. Bake for 14 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned. Set aside to cool while you prepare the fudge topping.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped chocolate, sweetened condensed milk and butter. Microwave, uncovered, on low, in 30 second increments, stirring in between each increment, until the chocolate is completely melted; stir mixture smooth. Stir in vanilla extract. Spread mixture over the shortbread, smoothing with a spatula into an even layer. Pour salted caramel on top of the chocolate mixture, then sprinkle with the toasted pecans. Refrigerate until firm; about 2 hours. Cut into small squares and serve.

Time 45m

Yield 25 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (18 ounce) box German chocolate cake mix
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 (16 ounce) bag caramels
3/4 cup butter, melted
1 (12 ounce) bag chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Mix together cake mix, butter, and 1/3 cup of the evaporated milk.
  • In a greased cake pan, spread half of the batter evenly in the pan and bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, over low heat or in the microwave, melt unwrapped caramels and 1/3 cup evaporated milk until smooth and creamy, stirring often.
  • Remove half baked crust from oven and sprinkle with chocolate chips.
  • Drizzle caramel over crust.
  • Drop remaining batter on top of crust and bake for 14-17 minutes.
  • Cool slightly and refridgerate to allow caramel to set up.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: This will help to prevent the fudge from burning.
  • Stir constantly: This will help to prevent the fudge from crystallizing.
  • Use a candy thermometer: This will help you to ensure that the fudge reaches the correct temperature.
  • Don't overcook the fudge: If you overcook it, it will become grainy.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
