Chocolate Walnut Fudge
Description
This fudge recipe begins by lining a baking pan with foil greased with butter for easy removal. Butter is melted and combined with milk chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and chopped walnuts. The mixture is heated gently in the microwave in short bursts, stirring between intervals, until smooth and fully combined.
Pouring the mixture into the prepared pan, it is chilled in the refrigerator for several hours until firm enough to cut. The end result is a dense, creamy fudge with a sweet milk chocolate flavor balanced by the crisp texture and nutty flavor of walnuts.
The ease of preparation and ready-to-cut fudge makes this a practical homemade candy option for holidays, gifts, or sweet cravings.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter unsalted
- 4 cups milk chocolate chips (about 2 bags)
- 2 sweetened condensed milk 14 ounce cans, cans

Instructions
- Wipe down a piece of foil with the wrapper of the stick of butter, then line a deep 8x8 pan (if you don't have a deep one use 9x13) with it.

- Melt in the microwave until smooth in 30 second increments (2 minutes total), mix in the walnuts, then pour into the greased aluminum lined pan and refrigerate until set, about 3-4 hours.
