This is the best fudge ever. It always comes out great. I used milk choc chips instead of semi-sweet.

I’ve been thinking about doing this and am so glad I found the recipe. My mom and I would make this for special occasions. Also, we would make divinity. That’s my next one. I miss those days with mom in the kitchen .
