Ingredients

• 3 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.25 cups Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter. Stir constantly until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the Kahlua, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until fully incorporated.

Step 4

If using chopped nuts, gently fold them into the mixture to distribute evenly.

Step 5

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a rubber spatula. Smooth out the top to ensure a neat finish.

Step 6

Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2-3 hours, or until it is firm enough to cut.

Step 7

Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut into small squares using a sharp knife.

Step 8

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best flavor.
