🍫 Fudge Topping
Ingredients:
- ½ can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted margarine
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 heaping tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Preparation:
- Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan over low heat.
- Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
- Allow it to boil for about 7 minutes, stirring constantly until it thickens slightly.
- Remove from heat. The topping will thicken more as it cools to a fudgy consistency.
Final Assembly:
- Pour the warm fudge topping over the baked cake, spreading evenly with a spatula.
- Let the cake rest until the topping sets. Serve warm or at room temperature.
💡 Tips
- Extra richness: Add a handful of chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
- Want a glossier finish? Add 1 tablespoon of corn syrup to the fudge topping while cooking.
- Storage: Store covered at room temperature for 2–3 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
This cake is dangerously good — moist, chocolaty, and drenched in gooey fudge. It’s the kind of simple recipe that becomes an instant favorite for birthdays, weekends, or whenever chocolate calls.
