Chocolate Chips – You can use milk chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips for this recipe. If you like your fudge sweet, use milk chocolate. If you prefer a less-sweet fudge, use semi-sweet.

Condensed Milk – You will want to use sweetened condensed milk for this recipe.

Nuts - You can use walnuts or pecans for this recipe. Or for nutless fudge, omit the nuts completely.
