Ingredients:

  • 3 cups (525g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz / 397g) full-fat sweetened condensed milk

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the vessel. Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Note: Leave a 2 inch overhang on two sides to act as handles for easy removal later.
  2. Combine components. Place 3 cups (525g) semi sweet chocolate chips and 1 can (14 oz / 397g) full fat sweetened condensed milk into a large microwave safe glass bowl.
  3. Begin the melt. Microwave the mixture on high for 30 seconds. Stop when you hear the first faint sizzle of the milk.
  4. First agitation. Stir the mixture vigorously with a silicone spatula for 15 seconds. Note: The chips won't be melted yet, but you are distributing the heat.
  5. Second burst. Microwave for another 30 seconds. The mixture will look thick and lumpy at this stage.
  6. Final stir. Stir again until the mixture becomes 90% smooth. If significant lumps remain, give it one last 15 second burst.
  7. Smooth the surface. Pour the glossy mixture into the prepared pan. The batter should flow like thick lava.
  8. Level and de gas. Use an offset spatula to smooth the top. Tap the pan firmly on the counter three times to release any trapped air bubbles that could cause internal gaps.
  9. Chill to set. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Wait until the center feels firm and resistant to a light finger press.
  10. Slice with precision. Lift the fudge out using the parchment handles. Slice into 24 even squares using a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry between every cut.
