Easy-Peasy Fudge
I have a super easy fudge recipe. Every ingredient you need is featured below. When I first made this recipe (in the early 1980's), everyone thought it was wonderful and asked for the recipe. I pretended it was an old, secret family recipe and I refused to share. Well, that was nonsense. I had found the recipe in a magazine and I just wanted people to think I was an awesome cook.
Time to share.
'FOOLPROOF DARK CHOCOLATE FUDGE'
(Makes about 2 pounds)
3 (6-ounce) packages of semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated milk)
Dash of salt (don't forget!)
1/2 to 1 Cup of chopped nuts (I used walnuts)
1 &1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
In a large micro-wave proof bowl, nuke chips, sweetened condensed milk, and salt for 1 minute, full power. (I used a glass mixing bowl).
Remove from microwave, stir in nuts and vanilla, and nuke 1 more minute. Remove from micro-wave and stir well.
Immediately spread evenly into 8 or 9" square lined pan. I lined mine with parchment paper and it was an excellent choice.
Chill 2 hours until firm (the fudge, not you).
I just lifted the paper and the fudge out of the pan, onto a cutting board, and cut what I needed. Then, I dropped the whole she-bang back into the pan, and slammed it back in the fridge.

I'm making up goodie boxes with my fudge and Handyman's homemade peanut brittle.
