Five-minute fudge is literally the easiest fudge you can make, and as it’s name says, it’s put together in 5 minutes. If you really can’t wait, you could eat it at that point, but you’ll like it better if you give it an hour or two to set up first.

You can use any kind of chocolate chips that you want for this recipe. I like semi-sweet because the fudge has more chocolate flavor and less sweetness.
