Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
In a medium-sized, microwave-safe bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and unsalted butter.
Microwave the bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. This should take about 2-3 minutes total.
Stir in the vanilla extract, chopped nuts, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm and set.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into 16 squares.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
