Ingredients
Scale
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
Microwave on high for 60 seconds. Stir well.
Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted. This usually takes 1 to 2 minutes total.
Stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Use the parchment overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut into small squares before serving.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
If you prefer a stovetop method, heat the condensed milk and chocolate chips gently in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Store leftover fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
