Here’s a quick and easy recipe for 3-Minute Fudge that’s rich, creamy, and only requires a few ingredients! It’s perfect when you need a simple dessert in a hurry.
Ingredients:
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (or any chocolate you prefer)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- 1/4 cup crushed candies or sprinkles (optional, for topping)
Instructions:
1. Melt the Chocolate:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir. Continue microwaving in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth (about 2-3 minutes total).
2. Add Vanilla and Mix:
- Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. If using, fold in the chopped nuts.
3. Pour into Pan:
- Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
- If desired, sprinkle crushed candies, sprinkles, or extra nuts on top.
4. Chill:
- Refrigerate for about 1-2 hours, or until the fudge is firm.
5. Cut and Serve:
- Once firm, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut it into squares.
- Enjoy!
Tips:
- Microwave Alternatives: If you don’t have a microwave, you can melt the chocolate and condensed milk together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly.
- Flavor Variations: Add peanut butter, crushed cookies, or flavored extracts (like mint or almond) for a fun twist.
- Storage: Store the fudge in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
