Instructions
-
Prepare the Pan: Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang for easy removal.

Melt the Chocolate and Peanut Butter: In a medium saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and peanut butter. Heat over low to medium heat, stirring constantly until smooth and creamy. Avoid overheating.

Serve: Use the parchment paper or foil to lift the fudge from the pan. Cut into small squares and serve.
Notes
- Add Nuts: For crunch, fold in chopped peanuts, almonds, or pecans before pouring into the pan.
- Flavor Twist: Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of sea salt for extra flavor.
