Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (or dark chocolate for a richer taste)
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional mix-ins: chopped nuts, mini marshmallows, or candy pieces

Instructions

  1. Prepare your pan: Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
  2. Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter (if using). Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth—about 1-2 minutes total.
  3. Add flavor: Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  4. Incorporate mix-ins: Fold in any optional mix-ins for added texture and flavor.
  5. Spread the mixture: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
  6. Chill and set: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm. Alternatively, place it in the freezer for about 30 minutes.
  7. Slice and enjoy: Use the parchment overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan, slice it into squares, and treat yourself!

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. For long-term storage, freeze in a sealed bag for up to 3 months.
