Bourbon Fudge

Make this naughty holiday fudge right now!

This is my dad’s recipe, and this is the first kind of fudge I ever learned to make.  It doesn’t involve cooking your sugars until you reach “soft ball” stage or anything else complicated.  It involves one bowl, five ingredients, and a microwave.  Couldn’t be easier, and couldn’t be better!  I made three types of fudge this Christmas, and this is certainly the best – good enough to give as gifts!

• Melt 2-12oz packages chocolate chips in microwave
• Add 1 can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• dash salt
• ¼ cup bourbon
• 1 – 1 ½ cup chopped nuts (I used walnuts)

Stir until smooth.  Spread into buttered 8×8 pan.  Chill, and cut into squares.
