5 Minute Fudge


Fudge in 5 minutes?  Yep, I promise.  I saw the recipe and was like "yeah right" but honestly it came together that quickly.  You do need some time for it to chill in the refrigerator before cutting but that's the longest part of this recipe.  I brought some to work today and it got great reviews!  It's got a slightly different texture than the slow process fudge you might be used to - but different in a good way.  It's not grainy at ALL.  Very smooth, great chocolate flavor.  With only three ingredients you can't beat this recipe for a quick treat. You won't even need your stove!!!


Add a can of sweetened condensed milk to the chocolate chips and butter.



Microwave for a couple minutes and then stir.  Now microwave again for another couple of minutes.  You shouldn't need more than 5 minutes for this process.



You might need to stir briskly to get the fudge to come together after microwaving.  You should see it start to turn into a smooth chocolate after a few quick stirs. 



Pour into an 8x8 inch pan and refrigerate for an hour or so until chilled.  I let mine chill overnight.




Enjoy!

Recipe found on the Allrecipes website here
