Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Milky Way candy bars
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly. Set aside.
Unwrap the Milky Way candy bars and chop them into small pieces for easier melting.
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped Milky Way bars, semi-sweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter.
Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring continuously until everything is melted and smooth. Be careful not to let it scorch.
Once the mixture is fully melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
If desired, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Let the fudge cool at room temperature for about 2 hours or chill it in the refrigerator for 1 hour until fully set.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the dish using the parchment paper or carefully loosen the edges with a knife.
Cut the fudge into 16 squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
