It does not feel like Christmas until you’ve made (and eaten!) a batch of decadent fudge. Easy and quick to make, this is the perfect treat to share with neighbors and friends this holiday season.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk together until smooth.

Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla and salt.

Pour into the prepared pan and smooth top with an offset spatula. Cover pan and refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.

Use the parchment paper to lift fudge out of the pan. Cut into squares and serve.
