Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 3 cups Granulated Sugar
  • 0.75 cup Unsalted Butter Cut into cubes
  • 0.75 cup Whole Milk
  • 0.125 teaspoon Salt
  • 12 ounces Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper. Make sure the parchment paper hangs over the edges to easily lift the fudge out later.
  • In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, milk, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the butter is melted.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches 235°F (113°C) on a candy thermometer. This may take 5-7 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and immediately add the chocolate chips and vanilla extract. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  • Pour the fudge into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Let it cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
  • Once the fudge is firm, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy!

Notes

For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. You can also add chopped nuts or dried fruit to the fudge for extra texture and flavor.
