Components:

Two cups of chocolate chips that are semisweet
Half a cup of condensed milk with added sugar
One-fourth cup unsalted butter
One teaspoon of vanilla cream
A pinch of salt
Half a cup of chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts, if desired)
1/4 cup chocolate shavings or small chocolate chips (optional topping)

Directions:

1. Get the pan ready:

Use aluminum foil or parchment paper to line an 8 x 8-inch baking dish, providing an overhang so that the fudge can be removed easily when it has set.
Apply a thin layer of cooking spray or butter to the foil or paper.

2. Get the chocolate melted:

Heat the butter, sweetened condensed milk, and semisweet chocolate chips in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and the butter and chocolate have melted completely.

3. Include Flavors:

Take the saucepan off of the burner as soon as the mixture is smooth.
Add a touch of salt and the vanilla extract and stir. This improves the flavor of the chocolate.

4. Include Extra Mix-ins:

If you would like to add some crunch and texture, fold in the chopped nuts now.

5. Pour the mixture for the fudge:

Fill the baking dish with the melted chocolate fudge mixture.
Smooth the top by spreading it evenly with a spatula.

6. Allow the Fudge to cool:

The fudge should be totally set and solid to the touch after at least two hours in the refrigerator.

7. Add the finishing touches (optional):

For an added touch of chocolate sweetness, top with chocolate shavings or small chocolate chips after it has set.

8. Chop and Present:

Lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil or parchment paper overhang.
Cut into squares, ranging from 16 to more, depending on the desired size.
Serve and savor!

Advice:

Creamier Fudge: You can add a splash of cream or a small amount extra sweetened condensed milk to make the fudge even smoother and creamier.
Storage: Keep the fudge squares in the fridge for up to one or two weeks in an airtight container.
Flavor Variations: Try incorporating various flavors, like a sea salt sprinkle for a sweet-salty twist, marshmallows, or a swirl of peanut butter.

Anyone who enjoys chocolate will be delighted by these rich chocolate fudge squares, which make a very easy yet decadent treat!
