Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the pan
Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it for easy removal.
Step 2: Melt the chocolate mixture
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Stir constantly until fully melted and smooth, about 3–5 minutes.
Step 3: Add flavor
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. If desired, fold in chopped nuts for extra texture and flavor.
Step 4: Pour and chill
Pour the fudge into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours until firm.
Step 5: Slice and serve
Lift the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into squares and enjoy!
