Ingredients
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 12 oz Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to make it easy to remove the fudge later. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Step 3
Stir constantly until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 4-5 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Let the fudge cool to room temperature for about 1 hour, then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Step 7
Once the fudge has set, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and place it on a cutting board.
Step 8
Cut the fudge into 16 pieces. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for up to 1 week.
