Having a fudge-related emergency? No judgement - this is a safe fudge space!
Never fear, my 2 ingredient fudge recipe is here to save the day! It's quick and simple, and you probably have both the ingredients in your pantry already.
This 2 ingredient chocolate fudge has all the textures and taste you are looking for with traditional fudge - gorgeously smooth, creamy, chewy and chocolatey, but with less fuss.
And, did I mention it's made in the microwave, too?
The other big plus for this fudgy treat is that it's a great base to add your own flavours to (see my Variations section below).

Top tips
- Greasing and lining your baking dish/pan will make it easier for you to get your set fudge out of the pan.
- I recommend lining with baking/parchment paper rather than foil, as the foil tends to tear easily when it comes time to turn it out.
Stove-top directions
- Combine the chocolate and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan and melt together on the stove over low to medium heat.
- Stir until everything is combined and the chocolate is melted.
- Then add cooked fudge to a greased and lined tin as per the recipe instructions.
Variations
- Add a splash of vanilla.
- Once everything is melted together, add some chopped nuts like walnuts or peanuts.
- A drop or two of mint essence will turn this into choc mint fudge.
- Add some sprinkles on top for a fun look.

I haven't made the recipe yet. If I don't have any milk chocolate squares, can I use Hershey's dark chocolate powder? The box gives directions to convert the powder to equal squares.
Thank you
Hi Brenda! I'm sorry but I haven't used that product before so I can't give you any guidance I'm afraid - sorry!
can I use semi sweet chocolate chips
Hi Brenda, yes!
How many ounces of chocolate chips do you use? As far as the sweetened condensed milk is it 14 oz?
Hi Gail, in the recipe card if you click on the section just under the heading "Ingredients" there is a button to bring up US measurements.
MMM MM MMMMMMM
