icon_lol.gificon_lol.gif I know...sounds amazing doesn't it?? For the "Dummies" book in my photos that I made for the reception after my sons' senior voice recital, I used WVSC cake, filled with fudge, caramel and Snickers and then iced in brown sugar SMBC. I was a VERY popular person! All his friends begged me to me THEIR "after the recital cakes"....*lol I loved that....that's what they all called them.....the "after the recital cakes". All the music performance majors are required to have junior and senior recitals, and there's always a little reception after.
I think I won the "after the recital cake" blue ribbons with my trombone case cake, then the chocolate wrap 3 tier and then the "Dummies" book.
Now he's in Grad School, and has a recital coming up in a few months. I'd better get my thinking cap on!

By the way, a 12 ounce bag of chips is 2 cups. I buy the big bags at Sams so I measured. icon_smile.gif The sweetened condensed milk cans are 14 ounces.

I think I might have used a 16oz bag of chocolate chips icon_redface.gif Also, the cake was in my car until an hour before serving, and the conference room at work is always freezing, and it was a December cake. All of that might have been the answer!

More chocolate would make it more solid, so it would be harder to cut. Hopefully it tasted good anyway!

And OH...CakesbyLJ, I usually use semi sweet, but that just because that's what I have on hand most of the time. I don't know why you couldn't use whatever chips you wanted!

And it's the best kind of recipe....you don't even have to write it down! Try it on top of your favorite brownie recipe sometime.....spread it on warm when you just take the brownies out of the oven.

Brownies with fudge topping....yum!

I'm wondering if you could use the can of Dulce de Leche that Nestle's sells to do the same thing. Hmmmm!

I also use ganache, and it needs no refridgeration. It's basically like a chocolate truffle.

Jodie.. you're killing me here... icon_biggrin.gif like your caramel isn't enough to die for..... now fudge... ok, do you use milk chocolate chips, or semi-sweet? I guess either would work, eh?[/quote]

Jodie? Caramel?? What caramel??

When this fudge filling cools, will it be spreadable?

I think Im going to make a batch... sounds really good. I dont care if I dont have a cake to put it in, I'll probably just eat it straight from the bowl! LOL

Thanks for the tip!
