Whip up this incredibly easy and delicious fudge in just minutes using your microwave! Perfect for a quick dessert or a sweet treat without any fuss.
Ingredients:
Chocolate chips
Condensed milk
Butter
Directions:
Prepare Dish: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly butter it to prevent sticking.
Microwave Chocolate Mixture: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, condensed milk, and butter. Microwave for 1 minute at 50% power. Stir, then continue microwaving in 30-second increments until the chocolate is completely melted, about 1 more minute. Be careful to avoid overheating, as it can make the fudge grainy.
Set Fudge: Quickly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the prepared dish. Smooth it out with a spatula or another piece of parchment paper. Refrigerate until the fudge is firm.
Slice and Serve: Once set, slice the fudge into squares using a plastic knife for easy cutting. Keep stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Variations:
Nuts: Stir in 1/2 to 1 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans right after melting the chocolate.
Peppermint: Add crushed candy canes on top just after pouring the mixture into the pan.
Sea Salt: Sprinkle flake sea salt over the fudge immediately after pressing into the pan.
Storage: Store the fudge in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
