Make rich, creamy chocolate fudge using only three simple ingredients. This no-bake recipe sets up perfectly for a melt-in-your-mouth dessert that is ideal for gifting or last-minute sweet treats.

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 the sides for easy removal. 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 30 seconds. Stir well. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is smooth and completely melted. This usually takes 1 to 2 minutes total. Do not overheat.
  4. Remove from the microwave and stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
  5. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to cut.
  7. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into small squares.

Notes

  • For a variation, you can add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or mini marshmallows after stirring in the vanilla extract.
  • If you do not have parchment paper, you can lightly grease the pan and line it with aluminum foil instead.
  • Store the finished fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
