Make rich, creamy chocolate fudge quickly using only three common ingredients. This recipe is simple and yields a decadent treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
  3. Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Do not let it boil.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  7. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into small squares before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
  • If you prefer a peanut butter swirl, melt 1/2 cup of peanut butter separately and gently swirl it into the fudge before chilling.
  • Store the finished fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or refrigerated for longer storage.
