{VIDEO} How to make this No Bake Easy Fudge Recipe
The base for this easy fudge recipe is made up of only 3 ingredients.
- semisweet chocolate chips
- sweetened condensed milk
- and teeny amount of butter
From there, anything else is just additional flavor combinations that you can tweak depending on what you love. So not only is this recipe easy and requires no baking whatsoever, turns out it’s also extremely customizable. Yep, that settles it. Best recipe ever!
To make this chocolate fudge, all you have to do is melt the chocolate chips and the butter, and then mix it together with the sweetened condensed milk. I chose to melt everything on the stovetop in a small saucepan, but you can do it in the microwave if you prefer.
Whichever way you choose, just remember that chocolate can seize up quickly if any water touches it or if it get’s too hot and burns. The key to melting it is low and slow. When melting it on the stovetop, I like to whisk it constantly so that the bottom of the pan doesn’t accidentally get too hot and burn it.
For additional flavor, I whisked in some vanilla extract, sea salt and cinnamon for that little Mexican touch I’m always looking for. 🙂 Once combined, I folded in some chopped nuts for a little added crunch. I used walnuts and cashews, but any nuts will work.
Lastly, I transferred the fudge mixture into a 9×9 baking dish that I lined with parchment paper. I recommend lining the bottom of your pan with parchment paper or even cling wrap, just as long as it comes out over the edges so that you can easily lift up the fudge and remove it from the pan when you’re ready to slice and eat it.
The rest is a waiting game. I put it in the fridge to set for about 2 hours until firm, but you could also put it in the freezer if you want it to set even faster.
All that’s left to do is cut it into squares and enjoy!
