Recipe: Chocolate Fudge

18/5/2014

Just in case you didn't have enough chocolate over Easter...a microwave chocolate fudge recipe for a delicious treat. Four ingredients, melt and refrigerate. Easy.

Older children can help with measuring out the butter, vanilla extract and chocolate. They can also use the can opener or ring pull to open the tin of condensed milk.

Younger children will enjoy pouring, stirring and taste testing!

The step by step photographs found in the full recipe are ideal for children who can read or for high school children with a moderate intellectual delay. You can purchase the recipe from the Your Kids OT shop.

Here is an abbreviated version of the recipe.
