Creamy buttery homemade fudge with absolutely no stove required! I never thought I would post a do-it-yourself blog post about recipes or food, but this was just too good not to share! Here lately I have wanted to make homemade chocolate fudge. Fudge can get very expensive, so making it at home is a lot more affordable.

I can't believe just how easy this recipe is.

Ingredients Needed:
Bag of chocolate chips (semisweet or sweet) ($3-$6 depending)
1/4 cup of butter (2 oz.) (no more than approx. $1)
14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk ($1-$2)
Nuts of any sort if desired

Baking dish
Baking grease if desired

Total Cost: Less than $10
Ours was about $5 for everything. We even got some fancy chocolate chips!

Put the entire bag of chocolate chips (around 12 oz), 14 oz of sweetened condensed milk, and 1/4 cup of butter into a microwavable bowl.

Microwave on medium in intervals of 3 minutes. Stir in between. Stir in nuts if desired. Ours took about 12 total minutes until it was softened enough to mix thoroughly. After melted, mix the contents by hand for about one minute or until the mixture is smooth.

You can keep the fudge in your glass dish, or pour it into a well greased glass baking dish. A size of about 6 x 6 or 8 x 8 would work well.

Refrigerate. Let the fudge set for at least 2 hours or preferably over night. Now you are ready to enjoy!
