INGREDIENTS
This ingredient list couldn't be easier: Vanilla-flavored white baking chips, and Sweetened full-fat condensed milk
Line the bottom of an 8 x 4 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or cling film, leaving overhang on the sides so you can lift the fudge out later.
STEP 1: PREP THE PAN
STEP 2: MELT
Add vanilla baking chips and condensed milk to a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15 to 30 second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted, smooth, and very thick.
STEP 3: SPREAD
Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula. If you want, create gentle swirls or patterns on top.
STEP 4: CHILL
Freeze until set, about 30 minutes, or until firm to the touch. If you take it out and it's soft to touch, chill a little longer.
STEP 5: SLICE
Lift fudge out using the parchment overhang. Let it sit at room temp a few minutes, then cut into pieces with a sharp knife.
STORAGE TIPS
This fudge can be refrigerated in an airtight container for 1 week or kept in the freezer for up to 2 months. Just thaw the fudge on the counter before serving.
