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, heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
- Stir constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Do not let the mixture boil or overheat.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is 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 semi-sweet or dark chocolate bars instead of chips.
- If you want a thicker fudge, use a 9×5 inch loaf pan instead of an 8×8 inch pan.
- You can add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or mini marshmallows after stirring in the vanilla for variation.
