Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- as desired Optional toppings (e.g., chopped nuts, sprinkles, sea salt)
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy fudge removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with cooking spray or butter.
In a medium-sized, microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter.
Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds on high, then remove and stir. Repeat this process in 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract and salt, mixing well to ensure even distribution of flavors.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, using a spatula to spread it evenly and smooth the surface. If desired, sprinkle any toppings (e.g., chopped nuts, sprinkles, sea salt) evenly across the top.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until it is completely firm.
Once set, use the parchment overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into 16 squares or smaller pieces if preferred.
Serve immediately or store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
