✅ Step 1: Prep Ingredients
Have all your ingredients ready — once you start melting, the process moves quickly. Measure out the chocolate chipsand open the can of sweetened condensed milk.
✅ Step 2: Melt Chocolate and Milk
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine:
-
3 cups of chocolate chips
-
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
Microwave on medium power for 1 minute. Stir well.
Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each time, until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. This typically takes 2–3 minutes total.
Tip: Avoid overheating — stir frequently to ensure even melting and prevent seizing.
✅ Step 3: Add Vanilla
Once the chocolate mixture is silky and smooth, stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. This enhances the flavor and adds depth to the fudge.
✅ Step 4: Pour into Pan
Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Pour the warm fudge mixture into the pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Tap the pan gently on the counter to level the top and eliminate any air bubbles.
✅ Step 5: Chill to Set
Place the pan in the refrigerator for 1–2 hours or until the fudge is firm to the touch.
✅ Step 6: Slice and Serve
Lift the fudge out using the parchment paper and place it on a cutting board. Slice into bite-sized squares. Enjoy!
