I made this in four different variations, and they were all fantastic, but I improved upon them each time. The first time I followed the recipe exactly and used semi-sweet chips. Initially, I was concerned about the consistency when I did the final stir, but it came out fine. My only issue was I noticed some butter separated from the mix and pooled/congealed in air pockets on the bottom. I reduced the butter by 1 T going forward. The second chocolate batch I used 1/2 c of peanut butter chips to cut some of the bitterness (mom's request). I added nuts this time as well. Magnificent. The first batch of peanut butter was strictly peanut butter chips, the milk and the reduced amount of butter. Turned out great, but not as peanut buttery as I would have liked. Made another batch a few weeks later - reduced the butter to 1T and added 3T of peanut butter. It was amazing!! Unfortunately, this recipe now gives me a super easy way to get my chocolate/sugar fix that has both a long shelf life and easy portability. I'm in trouble :)

I'm giving this a 5 for a few reasons. 1: it's just plain awesome. 2: it cured my chocolate craving with only half a block because of how chocolatey mine turned out. 3: my daughter refuses to eat it, which means more for me, and it'll last longer! Horrah! Passed the recipe along to some friends who are excited about the easiness of the recipe.

I agree with the people who said that although this fudge is easy to make, it tastes nothing like fudge. Fudge had a wonderful texture & layers of flavor. This has the texture of dense frosting & a boring one-note flavor. I'd rather eat chocolate chips straight-up.

Delicious! And so easy to make! I did it on the stovetop with a thick-bottomed pan and added a dash of vanilla and salt for flavor. Word to the wise, if you do use the stove, make sure you've got your butter and condensed milk warm before adding the chocolate. Hot chocolate hates cold things, and will seize on you in no time.

They say that if it's too good to be true, it itsn't. However, this fudge is incredibly easy AND incredibly delicious. The texture and taste were perfect.

a-MAZING!!! I love it! The only thing I did differently was I did 2 cups semi-sweet and 1 cup milk chocolate - makes a HUGE difference! Thank you for this recipe!

This fudge was delicious, and so easy to make. I had some leftover Andes Creme De Menthe baking chips, so I used one cup of those and 2 cups of regular chocolate chips. I really was not expecting the fudge to be as good as it is considering how few ingredients there are.
