Sweet milk fudge squares

Here’s a simple and indulgent Sweet Milk Fudge Squares recipe—creamy, rich, and perfect for a sweet treat.

Ingredients

• 2 cups sweetened condensed milk

• 2 cups granulated sugar

• 1/2 cup milk (whole milk works best)

• 1/4 cup unsalted butter

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts (almonds, cashews, or pistachios)

Instructions

1. Prepare the pan:

   • Grease a 8×8-inch or 9×9-inch square pan and line with parchment paper for easy removal.

2. Cook the fudge:

   • In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine sweetened condensed milk, granulated sugar, milk, and butter.

   • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to pull away from the sides (about 10–15 minutes).

3. Add flavorings:

   • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and nuts (if using).

4. Set the fudge:

   • Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

   • Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for 1–2 hours until firm.

5. Cut and serve:

   • Lift the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper.

   • Cut into squares and serve.

Tips:

• Stir constantly while cooking to prevent burning and achieve a smooth texture.

• For a chocolate version, add 2–3 tbsp cocoa powder while cooking.
