When I first came across this recipe, I had my doubts. Four ingredients? No candy thermometer? Done in minutes? It didn't seem possible this fudge could stack up against the kind I'd enjoyed at the boardwalk for years. However, I'm happy to report that this fudge holds its own. I have used this recipe for two years now, and my various taste testers have given it a huge thumbs up. It's now the only fudge I make. If desired, chopped nuts can be added. Personally, I prefer a smooth square I can let melt in my mouth and have written up the recipe accordingly.
EASIEST EVER FUDGE
- 3 c semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
- dash salt
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2. In a medium sauce pan, combine the chocolate chips with the condensed milk and salt. Heat over low until chocolate melts, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Fudge mixture should be smooth and gloss. Spread fudge mixture in prepared pan.
3. Allow fudge to cool in refrigerator for at least 2 hours. To cut, lift foil out of pan and then peel off of fudge. Cut fudge into 64 small squares. Keep refrigerated in an air-tight container.

This is the only fudge I have had success in making! It is so yummy!!! Easy fudge is right :)
ReplyDeleteSweetened condensed milk is like magic. It makes everything perfect. My much requested cheesecakes are a testament to s.c. milk. Your fudge looks great! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOoh this looks good! I think I might have a can of condensed milk rattling around somewhere and the rest of the ingredients are staples.
ReplyDeleteYep, that sure is simple! Now I need to raid the chocolate cabinet.

ReplyDeleteI clicked over from LBR...for your irresistable fudge recipe...loved to read the "about me" section, your very demanding cat...well, I have two cats, and one is very demanding, the other is quite mellow! The fudge recipe is awesome, I happen to have all the ingredients on hand, and will try out, and link it back to you!

I love this fudge recipe! And it's soooo delicious, it almost feels like cheating when you know it took no time to make. But if you're me you just eat another piece of fudge and get over it. ;)
ReplyDeleteI could just eat the whole batch of this fudge! Now following and hope you'll stop by and share this recipe post on my weekend blog hop too!
