1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions

 - Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until fully melted and smooth.
 - Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, if desired.

Notes
If you prefer a firmer fudge, reduce the amount of sweetened condensed milk or refrigerate for a longer period.
Mix-ins such as crushed nuts, mini marshmallows, or crushed cookies can be added after melting.
For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate.
This recipe can be doubled; adjust the refrigeration time accordingly.
