Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Lightly grease the paper with cooking spray.

  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter over low heat. Stir continuously until the chocolate and butter have melted completely and the mixture is smooth.

  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. These ingredients will enhance the richness of the fudge and add depth to the flavor.

  4. Stir the fudge mixture vigorously until everything is well combined and glossy. This step is crucial to ensure a smooth texture in the finished fudge.

  5. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle your favorite toppings over the fudge at this stage. Chopped nuts, crushed cookies, or colorful sprinkles can add a delightful crunch and visual appeal.

  6. Place the pan in the refrigerator and let the fudge set for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Chilling allows the fudge to solidify and reach the desired consistency for slicing.

  7. Once the fudge has set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and slice it into squares or bars of your preferred size. Serve and enjoy the creamy, indulgent treat!
