Step Description
1 In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the evaporated milk and sugar.
2 Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling for 8 minutes to achieve a smooth consistency.
3 Add the butter and chocolate chips to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are fully melted.
4 (Optional: If you enjoy the bitter undertones of dark chocolate, this is the perfect time to incorporate it into the fudge mixture.)
5 Once the ingredients are well blended, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, infusing the fudge with its signature aroma.
6 Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch cake pan, then carefully pour the velvety fudge mixture into it, spreading it evenly across the pan’s surface.
7 Allow the fudge to cool and set at room temperature for a few hours, or expedite the process by placing it in the refrigerator.
8 Once set, slice the fudge into small, delectable squares, ready to be enjoyed by family and friends alike.
