Ingredients

  • 3 cups (18 ounces) chocolate chips (I used white chocolate chips, but any flavor will work)
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

  4. Refrigerate until set and completely cool. Slice into squares and enjoy!

Notes

  • COOK'S TIPS AND RECIPE VARIATIONS:
  • How long does microwave fudge last?
  • In general, microwave fudge that is kept in an airtight container at room temperature will last for one to two weeks. Refrigerating fudge can extend its shelf life to two to three weeks.
  • Can you freeze microwave fudge?
  • Yes! You can freeze microwave fudge that is made with condensed milk. To do so, wrap the fudge in airtight plastic wrap. Next, wrap the fudge in aluminum foil, and store in a large freezer bag. You can wrap up individual squares so that it's easy to grab one or two when a craving strikes!
  • Stir chocolate mixture every 30-60 seconds when microwaving.
  • Use any flavor chocolate chip that you prefer: white chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, or semi-sweet chocolate chips;
  • Add any mix-in's to the fudge after the chocolate mixture is melted in the microwave. Good options include chopped walnuts, chopped pecans, sprinkles, or cinnamon chips;
  • Allow the fudge to cool completely in the refrigerator before slicing.
