Easy Chocolate Fudge


My friend Marty strikes again with her easy, delicious chocolate fudge recipe!  Fudge can be a finicky candy, but not with this recipe.  No need for a thermometer and no worries about graininess or it being too sweet, either.  It's perfect. ❤️


Easy Chocolate Fudge

3 cups milk chocolate chips
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1/8 tsp. salt
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Line an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper or wax paper leaving a slight overhang.  Combine chocolate chips with sweetened condensed milk and salt in a large microwaveable bowl.  Microwave at MEDIUM (50%) power for 3-5 minutes.  After one minute, stir mixture with a wooden spoon. (Mixture will be heavy.)  Continue to cook in 30-second increments stirring after each time until melted and smooth.  Stir in the pecans and vanilla.  Spread the fudge evenly in the lined pan with your hand.  Using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon, smooth top.  Mixture will appear very soft and shiny.  Refrigerate for 2 hours.  Lift fudge from pan using the overhang and set on a cutting board.  Remove parchment paper or wax paper and cut into 1-inch pieces.  Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator as this is a soft fudge.


Note:  See the peanut butter fudge recipe for photos of the prepared pan:  http://www.easyaspiecanbe.com/2019/12/easy-peanut-butter-fudge-and-tutorial.html
