Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325ðF (165ðC).
  2. Butter an 8x8-inch baking pan and set aside.
  3. Assess your fudge: if it is soupy, use only 1/4 cup milk; if it is very thin, omit the milk entirely. For standard hard or chewy fudge, use the full 1/2 cup milk.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk (if using), and all-purpose flour until the mixture is completely smooth and free of lumps.
  5. Add the failed fudge to the wet mixture. If the fudge is hard, chop it into small cubes first for easier mixing. Stir vigorously until the batter is uniform.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  7. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. The edges should be set, and a cake tester inserted near the edge should come out clean. The center will remain soft and fudgy.
  8. Remove from the oven and place the pan on a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.
