Ingredients
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.5 cups chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or pecans)
Directions
Step 1
Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with butter or cooking spray.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and unsalted butter. Place the saucepan over low heat.
Step 3
Stir constantly with a heat-safe spatula until the chocolate chips and butter are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Be careful not to let the mixture scorch.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract and salt. If you're adding chopped nuts, fold them in at this stage.
Step 5
Quickly pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to spread it evenly into the corners.
Step 6
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 15 minutes, then transfer it to the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
Step 7
Once the fudge is set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it into 16 squares or your desired size.
Step 8
Serve immediately or store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
