Ingredients

  • 350 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 400 grams Sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0 Optional toppings (e.g., chopped nuts, crushed candy, or sprinkles)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter.

Step 3

Heat the saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula until the chocolate chips and butter are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

If desired, sprinkle optional toppings like chopped nuts or candy over the surface of the fudge and gently press them in with a spatula or your hands.

Step 7

Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.

Step 8

Once the fudge has set, use the parchment overhang to lift it out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and slice into small squares using a sharp knife.

Step 9

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
