- Melt the Ingredients: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until everything is melted and smooth (usually takes about 1-2 minutes).

- Mix in Toppings: If desired, fold in any optional toppings like chopped nuts or sprinkles for extra texture and flavor.
- Pour and Set: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
- Cut and Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy!
