Ingredients

1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk

3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.

Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each round, until mixture is fully melted and smooth (about 90 seconds total).

Stir in vanilla extract.

Pour mixture into a lined or lightly greased 8×8-inch pan.

Spread evenly with a spatula and let cool at room temperature or refrigerate until set (1–2 hours).

Once firm, cut into squares and enjoy.

Notes

For a twist, stir in 1/2 cup chopped nuts, mini marshmallows, or crushed cookies.

Swirl in peanut butter before setting for a fun variation.

Use dark chocolate chips for a richer, less sweet flavor.

If fudge is too soft, ensure the chocolate was fully melted and the fudge had enough time to set.
