Make rich, creamy chocolate fudge easily with only three ingredients. This foolproof recipe delivers decadent homemade fudge perfect for quick desserts or holiday candy.

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 for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
  3. Microwave on medium power in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted. This usually takes 1 to 2 minutes total.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
  5. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  7. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment overhang. Cut into small squares before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
  • If you prefer a peanut butter fudge variation, substitute 1 cup of creamy peanut butter for half of the chocolate chips.
  • This recipe is a quick dessert and sets up fast, making it ideal for last-minute holiday candy needs.
