Slow Cooker Fudge

Well, it's time to go back to school and I don't know about you, but I needed a little something sweet to brighten my day.  The Monday after winter break is typically pretty rough, so whip up a batch of this yummy fudge so that you can shake off the blues a bit.  For high school, the Monday after Winter Break also marks the beginning of getting ready for finals.  Let me tell you, it is not pretty.  Student minds are still on break (and lets be honest, so are teacher minds) and we all have to get ready to start studying pretty intensively.  I try to make class as interactive and fun as possible so that students actually want to come to class....we will see how it goes!

This fudge was absolutely delish!  It was the perfect mixture of chocolate and with the sea salt sprinkled on top it became truly special.  I made this for my new years party and everyone was raving about it.  Plus, it is crazy easy to make! You don't need a candy thermometer or anything.  simply dump the ingredients into a crock pot, stir, and then pour into a pan to set and cool!  Done! When, I saw the recipe over at Creme de la Crumb, I was skeptical.  I thought this fudge was going to take forever, but then I saw that you only have to wait an hour and I was thrilled! I don't like waiting for dessert...

Slow Cooker Fudge

Ingredients:
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup honey
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
sea salt for topping (optional)

Directions:
1. Place milk chocolate, dark chocolate, honey and cream into your crock pot and cook on high for 1 hour.
2. Line an 8 by 8 baking dish (or a smaller pan for thicker fudge) with foil.
2. After 1 hour, stir in the milk chocolate chips until you have a smooth and creamy mixture.  Pour your chocolate mixture into your baking pan, sprinkle with salt if you are using it, and let the fudge set at room temperature.  Once set, cut into squares.
