Why You Must Make

  • I made this microwave candy bar fudge on New Year’s Eve for a gathering the following day. By the time we left the party, I had promised to email the recipe to one of my friends…and her husband hinted at how much he’d love to find a second batch in his mailbox.
  • Chocolate chips + one can of sweetened condensed milk + Milky Way candy bars = Dreamy Fudge.
  • It’s a snap to make. And one of the easiest desserts you’ll ever make!

Ingredient Notes

  • Sweetened Condensed Milk – 1 (14-ounce); I used the Eagle Brand brand.
  • Semisweet Chocolate Chips – I used a 12-ounce bag of Ghirardelli brand. You may chop them for quicker melting, but I didn’t find this necessary.
  • Fun-sized Milky Way Candy Bars – Chopped, divided (I used 10). Part are melted and part are mixed into the melted fudge mixture before it’s scraped into the pan.

How to Make 

  1. Place a bag of chocolate chips, the condensed milk, and a few chopped fun-sized Milky Ways into a microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Zap and stir a few times till smooth, then add more chopped Milky Ways before spreading into a greased pan.
  3. That’s it. You barely need a recipe! The hardest part will be waiting till it cools. Pinky swear.

Recipe Tips

  • I used semisweet chocolate chips. Milk chocolate chips will make a softer fudge, but you can use bittersweet chocolate chips if you’d like a richer, not-so-sweet fudge.
  • You can replace the Milky Ways with the same amount of fun-sized 3 Musketeers or Snickers bars.
  • Lining your pan with non-stick foil makes it easy to lift the fudge from the pan after it cools and transfer it onto a cutting board for easy slicing.
  • Tip of the Day: You’ll get the cleanest squares if you cut this fudge when chilled. Bring it back to room temperature before serving for a creamier texture.
