Instructions

1

Prepare the Pan

Line a 23x23 cm (9x9 inch) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Pro tip: Using clips to secure the parchment paper can make pouring the fudge easier.

2

Melt the Chocolate

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter. Microwave on medium power in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.

Pro tip: Be careful not to overheat the chocolate, as it can seize.

3

Add the Cereal

Fold in the crispy rice cereal until it is evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.

Pro tip: Gently fold to avoid crushing the cereal.

4

Pour into Pan

Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Pro tip: Use a sheet of parchment to press down the mixture evenly.

5

Chill the Fudge

Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm and set.

Pro tip: For faster setting, place the fudge in the freezer for 1 hour.

6

Cut and Serve

Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment overhang. Cut into 24 squares and serve.

Pro tip: For cleaner cuts, dip your knife in hot water and wipe it dry before cutting.

Tips & Tricks
