Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tsp Butter (optional, for greasing the pan)
Instructions
Lightly grease an 8x8-inch pan with butter and line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and peanut butter.
Microwave the mixture in 20-second increments, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
Tap the pan gently on the countertop to remove any air bubbles and smooth out the surface.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm and set.
Once the fudge has set, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and place it on a cutting board.
Cut the fudge into 16 equal squares (or smaller pieces if preferred) and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
