Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- Optional toppings (chopped nuts, sprinkles, flaky sea salt, etc.)
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with non-stick spray or butter.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter.
Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute. Remove the bowl and stir until the chocolate chips are almost melted.
Return the bowl to the microwave and heat in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until well combined.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle your choice of toppings on top, pressing them gently into the fudge.
Refrigerate the fudge for 2-3 hours, or until fully set and firm.
Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge out of the baking dish. Cut into 16 squares (or your preferred size) and serve.
Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
