Spray an 8x8 inch square pan with cooking spray and place a double layer of cling film into the pan, with enough overhang to pull the fudge out when its set. Spray lightly with cooking spray, leave to one side.
Place the condensed milk into a medium sized saucepan and break the chocolate into small pieces and place in the pan.
Place over a low-medium heat and stir until all the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Add in the butter and peppermint extract and stir until the butter is melted and well incorporated.
Pour the mixture into your prepared pan and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle your crushed candy canes over the top and leave to cool for 30 minutes.
Place in the fridge until fully set, around 2 1/2 hours. Once set, gently wiggle each side of the overhanging clingfilm until the fudge comes loose, peel away the clingfilm and then cut into small squares, around 1 inch square.
Devour or wrap up in cellophane bags with Christmas ribbon and a gift tag for the perfect edible gift!
