I am so glad you are here. This recipe proves that incredible, soul-satisfying treats do not have to be complicated. Make this rich, creamy chocolate fudge with just three simple ingredients. It sets up perfectly every time, delivering that melt-in-your-mouth texture you want without needing a candy thermometer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (12 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal later. Lightly grease the paper.
  2. In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
  3. Microwave on 50% power for 60 seconds. Stir well. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted. This prevents scorching.
  4. Remove from the microwave and stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
  5. Pour the hot fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan. Spread it evenly using an offset spatula.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm enough to cut.
  7. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge from the pan. Place it on a cutting board and cut into 36 small squares.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, substitute semi-sweet chips with dark chocolate chips.
  • If you want to add texture, gently fold in 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or mini marshmallows after the mixture is smooth, before pouring into the pan.
  • Store the finished fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or refrigerate for longer storage.
