There are times you just crave chocolate<\/a>. Chocolate Fudge. You want it now. Not in a few hours. And it\u2019s summer. It\u2019s hot. I really don\u2019t want to spend any more time in the kitchen than I have to. This is all you need. Sweetened Condensed Milk<\/a> (not evaporated milk<\/a>) Chocolate chips<\/a> and some vanilla extract<\/a>. You could also change out the vanilla<\/a> for another extract to create unique flavor combinations. Think mint, almond or orange. (Note from My Life. – I use my own homemade Vanilla and Ghirardelli 60% cocoa chips) 1 can Sweetened Condensed milk (14 ounces) (Note from My Life. I add 1\/2 cup chopped pecans to my fudge. You can use your favorite nut.) Borrowed from – chocolatechocolateandmore.com<\/p>\n![\"fudge](\"https:\/\/mybookofstories.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/fudge-6.jpg\")

\nNow that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t make this fudge any time of the year. It would make a great gift for family and friends during the holidays. Or a last minute (literally) addition to a party spread or potluck.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nUse a large microwave<\/a> safe bowl. I love using my Large Batter<\/a> Bowl because of the handle. Place your chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in your bowl. Heat for 1 minute on high in the microwave. Then stir. (You can also do this on the stove.)<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nAnd stir. If needed, heat for an additional time, at 30-second intervals, until smooth and chips are completely melted. Stir in extract, then pour into a prepared pan.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI like to line my pans with parchment paper<\/a> so I can lift out the fudge and cut on a cutting board instead of in the pan.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nCut 3 Minute Fudge. Oh, and I don\u2019t spread out my fudge to the corners of the pan. I like the fudge shop look. (and all those little corner slices become my taste testing bites!)<\/p>\n<\/a>
\n3 Minute Fudge with just 3 ingredients.<\/strong>
\n3 Minute, Three Ingredient Fudge<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n2 cups (1 12 ounce bag) semi-sweet chocolate chips
\n1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/p>\n
\nInstructions<\/strong>
\nButter<\/a> a square pan and line with parchment paper for easy removal of set fudge. Set aside.
\nIn a microwave safe 2 quart bowl, heat chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk, on high for 1 minute. Remove from microwave. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir to combine. If needed, heat an additional 30 seconds. Stir until chips are completely melted and chocolate is smooth.
\nStir in vanilla extract. Pour fudge into prepared pan. Let fudge cool completely before cutting into 1 inch squares. (you can place in the refrigerator for 1 hour to speed up the process.)
\nStore in an airtight container. Fudge does not need to be kept refrigerated.<\/p>\nRelated articles<\/h6>\n
