Rich Chocolate Fudge

Ingredients:

• 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pan:
   • Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, extending the foil over the edges to make removal easier. Grease the foil lightly with butter or nonstick spray.
2. Melt the Ingredients:
   • In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter.
   • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
3. Add Vanilla and Salt:
   • Remove the saucepan from the heat.
   • Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until fully incorporated.
4. Pour into Pan:
   • Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan.
   • Spread it evenly with a spatula to ensure a smooth top.
5. Chill the Fudge:
   • Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm.
6. Cut into Squares:
   • Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the edges of the foil.
   • Peel away the foil and place the fudge on a cutting board.
   • Cut into small squares with a sharp knife.
7. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks, or in the refrigerator for longer shelf life.

This fudge is rich, creamy, and perfect for satisfying your chocolate cravings. Enjoy!
