Steps:
- Grease an 8" square baking dish with butter, oil or cooking spray. Line with waxed paper, leaving the edges of the waxed paper to hang over the edges of the dish.
- In a medium, heavy bottomed saucepan, melt the chocolate chips with the milk over medium low heat. Stir in the butter until completely melted. Stir in the peanuts, vanilla and salt. Using a rubber spatula spread the mixture on the bottom of the prepared pan, smoothing the top. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours. Using a hot, dry knife, cut into 1" squares.
ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE FUDGE
If you want chocolate fudge, this is it! I got this recipe from my mother-in-law. It's a Christmas staple in her house, and it's my husband's favorite fudge. It makes a lot of fudge, so it's a good recipe to use for gift giving. Prep time is approximate. The recipe can be credited to Mrs. Paul Kaczinsky.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of your chocolate will greatly impact the flavor of your fudge. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
- Don't overcook the fudge: Overcooked fudge will be grainy and crumbly. Cook the fudge until it reaches a temperature of 235 degrees Fahrenheit (113 degrees Celsius), then remove it from the heat immediately.
- Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help the fudge to set properly and prevent it from becoming crumbly.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place: Fudge can be stored for up to two weeks at room temperature or for up to three months in the refrigerator.
Conclusion:
Chocolate fudge is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a rich and decadent fudge that will satisfy your sweet tooth.
