Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (12 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
- In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
- Microwave on 50 percent power for 30 seconds. Stir well. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is almost completely melted and smooth. This usually takes 1 to 2 minutes total. Do not overheat.
- Remove from the microwave and stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to cut.
- Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into small squares.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use high-quality chocolate chips.
- If you prefer a different flavor, substitute peanut butter chips or butterscotch chips for the chocolate chips.
- To achieve a smooth texture, stir gently after melting; avoid over-mixing.
