Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 14 oz. sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup butter

Instructions
 

  • Line an 8x8 square baking pan with foil (bring foil up over the sides of the pan for easy removal) and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Add chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk and unsalted butter in a saucepan.
  • Heat the fudge mixture over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula until butter and chocolate are melted, and the mixture is smooth. This typically takes about 7-8 minutes on a gas stove, and the fudge should be smooth, even, and much like frosting.
  • If you underheat, the chocolate could be soupy, and if you overheat, it could seize up and harden in the pan. This is a slow and steady process while stirring.
  • After the fudge is smooth and melted, pour fudge into the prepared pan and spread evenly with the back of a spoon.
  • Refrigerate the fudge pan overnight or until completely firm.
  • Once firm, carefully lift the foil from the pan and set it on a cooking board. Peel foil from the sides of the fudge.
  • Use a large, sharp knife to cut into squares, wiping chocolate from the knife blade (carefully) between cuts for a smooth cut.
  • Makes 42 squares

NOTES: See full recipe article for tips on cutting and setting fudge!
I sometimes set my fudge quicker in the freezer.
Keep fudge in the fridge in an airtight container to store leftovers.
