Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Milk chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup, chopped Walnuts
- 0.5 cup (optional, for garnish) Powdered sugar
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8 inch square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with butter or non-stick spray.
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, milk chocolate chips, and unsalted butter.
Turn the heat to medium-low and stir constantly with a silicone or wooden spatula until the chocolate chips and butter have melted and the mixture is smooth. Be careful not to let the mixture scorch.
Once smooth and fully melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract, salt, and chopped walnuts. Mix until well combined.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Let the fudge cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator to set for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut the fudge into 16 equal squares.
Optional: Lightly dust the top of the fudge pieces with powdered sugar before serving to add a decorative touch.
Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
