Notes
Pro Tips:
Quality matters, use good ingredients.
You can use 2 bags of chocolate chips or one bag each of chocolate and butterscotch.
If using butterscotch chips, they don't melt as well as chocolate and will need to be smashed some at the end.
A nine-inch square pan lined with parchment paper or a well buttered.
If using parchment paper, a few dots of butter helps hold it in place.
If using a buttered dish, the setting it in warm water for a few minutes will loosen the fudge for removal.
Decorate of desired immediately after placing in pan.
Cool before removing from pan. You may need to set the pan in hot water to loosen the fudge.
