Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line a 9x9 inch square baking dish with parchment paper making sure it covers the sides of the pan. Set aside.
- Place the chocolate chips and condensed milk in a large microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave for one minute. Stir well to combine and allow the heat to melt the chocolate chips. If the mixture isn’t smooth, microwave mixture for an additional 30 seconds or until the mixture is completely smooth.
- Stir in vanilla extract and quickly pour into the prepared pan and spread out evenly.
- Let the fudge cool and set at room temperature before cutting. To cool it quicker, place in the refrigerator. If the fudge is sticky at room temperature place the pan in the refrigerator before cutting.
- Store fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Line your baking pan with non-stick foil. You can just lift the fudge out of the pan, which makes cutting the fudge so much easier.
- Make sure you use sweetened condensed milk not evaporated milk. Evaporated milk is used for a lot of fudge recipes, but this recipe requires sweetened condensed milk. Sweetened condensed milk is much thicker and helps this fudge set up properly.
- Let’s talk about chocolate fudge with nuts. If you’re a huge fan of chocolate fudge with nuts, then I’d suggest mixing the nuts directly into the fudge. Finally, if you’re a semi-nut fan, then you can sprinkle nuts on top of the fudge. You can use chopped pecans or walnuts. I'd recommend about 1 cup of the nuts in this recipe.
- Fudge should always be stored in an airtight container to seal out an extra moisture and prevent it from drying out. It can be stored at room temperature but I will usually pop it in the fridge so it doesn’t get warm and melt.
- Need to make this ahead of time? This is the perfect treat to make ahead because you can freeze it. Simply warp it in plastic wrap and place in resealable container. It’s best to freeze in a whole block as individual pieces tend to dry out when they are frozen. When ready to enjoy thaw it overnight in the refrigerator. It should be enjoy within a week of thawing.
