Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
- Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted. This usually takes about 1 to 1.5 minutes total.
- Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Quickly pour the mixture into your prepared pan and spread it evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm enough to cut.
- Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into small squares.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use high-quality chocolate chips.
- If you prefer a different flavor, substitute peanut butter chips or white chocolate chips for the semi-sweet chips.
- For a classic, old-fashioned fudge texture, let the fudge cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cutting, though refrigeration speeds up the process.
