Fudge

You will need:
  • 1 (14oz) can of sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 cups milk chocolate chips
  • Cooking spray
  • 1/2 cup walnuts (if desired)*
Directions:

Pour Sweetened condensed milk into a microwave safe bowl
Add chocolate chips and microwave about 1 minute. You want to heat the chocolate just enough to melt it, but not long enough to burn the chocolate.
Mix until milk is incorporated into the chocolate. 
Line a square baking dish with tin foil, spray with cooking spray, and transfer to mix into dish.
Chill in the fridge for 2 hours

Now you can pop the fudge out of the pan and remove the tin foil to cut into squares.

*You can add walnuts into the mixture before transferring to the baking dish so that they will be throughout the fudge when it's done, or you can add them to the top to the fudge before chilling in the fridge. If you add them to the top, I suggest pressing them slightly into the mix so that they don't fall off when they are being cut.
