Servings: 32

 

Ingredients:

18 ounces white baking or melting chocolate

Optional: 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract if using mint Oreos; 2 extra Oreos and 1-2 tablespoons extra chocolate (white or dark) for decorative topping

2 1/2 cups (about 12) Oreos (regular, golden, or mint–choose your favorite)

1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)

Equipment:

baking paper

cutting board

double boiler

knife

bowl

frying pan

pot

chefs knife

Cooking instruction summary:

Line an 8-inch square pan with wax or parchment paper, letting the sides overhang slightly for easy removal later. Set aside.On a cutting board, cut the Oreos into 5 or 6 pieces each. I like to use a serrated or other sharp knife and saw gently to keep the crumbs to a minimum. Set aside.In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until almost completely melted. Stir to melt the last little pieces in the residual heat. (Optionally, you may melt the chocolate in a double boiler, or fashion a makeshift version by placing a smaller pot or heat-proof bowl within a larger pot.)When the chocolate is melted and smooth, stir in the sweetened condensed milk. If you are making the mint version, add the peppermint extract at this time, too. Immediately add the Oreo pieces, and gently stir to incorporate.Pour the mixture into the lined pan, spreading evenly. As an option, chop 2 extra Oreos and melt 1-2 tablespoons of additional chocolate. Distribute the cookie pieces evenly over the surface, and then drizzle with the melted chocolate. (To make a thin drizzle, scoop the melted chocolate into a small zip-top bag. Snip off a tiny corner and use like a piping bag.)Let the fudge set. I like to cool the fudge at room temperature for a few minutes, and then refrigerate for several hours. Once set, the fudge can be easily removed from the pan for cutting by lifting the edges of the wax or parchment paper. The paper will easily pull away from the set fudge.Cut into squares and place in an airtight container to store. (With their long blades, a bread or chefs knife make it easy to cut uniform pieces.) The fudge will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator but will keep for at least a week on the counter. Some people prefer to eat the fudge cold, others enjoy it at room temperature.

Food Joke

Copyright 1999 W. Bruce Cameron Every Wednesday morning for the past nine years, my wife has interrupted the usual flow of chaos by shrieking, "oh my gosh, it's trash day!" The children, all three of whom are in various stages of school preparation, react to this statement as if she has just spoken Romanian, stopping and staring at her in numb incomprehension. "Hurry!" my wife urges them. Being obedient children, they immediately proceed to hurry. However, with no specific instructions beyond that, they don't seem to be hurrying to do anything in particular--certainly, trash collection is in no way involved. They bump into each other in the hallway a lot, shouting at each other to "get out of the way!" "Gather up all the garbage!" my wife and I command. The kids respond by forming a committee to debate the fairness of this directive. After a brief discussion, they reach the consensus that everyone should be held responsible for his or her "own" junk. As corollary to this absurd principle, they initiate an anthropologic study into the contents of each receptacle. For example, since the parents cook, most of the trash under the sink is "theirs." My oldest daughter haughtily declares that she "never" throws anything away. My son, checking through the downstairs trash can to gather evidence that he's not accountable for that one, begins to feel remorse over some of the things he's discarded, and starts pulling items out. "We're running late!" my wife warns. This could be our Official Family Motto. I recently purchased a shredder for my confidential documents, only to discover I don't have any confidential documents. However, a fifteen-year-old girl's entire life is cause for secrecy, and I can hear her using the device now, grinding up correspondence from her friends in school. "We don't have time for that!" I tell her. A few minutes later, my son joins her and begins shredding what sounds like a potato. The school bus chugs by, and I pick up the phone to call the attendance line. "For absences, press 1," the recording tells me. "For late arrivals, press 2. If you're the Camerons calling because it's trash day, press 3." "We're pigs," my oldest daughter announces. I regard her warily. "We throw away too much stuff." "It would be better just to dump it all on the floor in your bedroom like you do," I agree. Despite my expectations, a single garbage can has now found its way to the curb. My son places it in the center of the driveway, so that no one will be able to drive to work. A gusty wind blows an empty milk jug out of the container and into the woods. My boy responds with the reflexes of a glacier, watching the carton bounce away. I open the door. "Hey!" I tell him. "Go get that!" He stares at me blankly. "The milk jug!" I yell. "Oh, okay, Dad!" he responds cheerfully. Having seen his bus pass by has put him in a euphoric mood. He picks up a second plastic milk container and, to my amazement, tosses it into the wind, jubilantly clapping his hands as it flies into the trees. "Why did you do that?" I shriek. "Well it seemed like a waste of time to go after just one!" he responds logically. He'll make someone a fine husband someday. All week long my children have been denying that the kitchen trash needs to be emptied, jumping up and down on the contents to compress them. As a result, when I drag the plastic container from under the sink, it weighs as much as a collapsed star. I wrestle it to the end of the driveway and the neighborhood dogs trot up to see what the Camerons will have on the breakfast buffet this morning. My daughter is right; we do throw too much stuff away. By the time we're finished, we've dragged so much junk out to the end of my driveway it resembles the inside of my garage. The shredder falls silent and the kids go to school, and what passes for peace at the Cameron house settles over the morning. Until next Wednesday.
