Ah, you’re talking about that ultra-simple 2-ingredient milk fudge—creamy, sweet, and perfect for a quick treat! Here’s a foolproof recipe.
2-Ingredient Sweet Milk Fudge Squares
Ingredients
- 2 cups sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups desiccated coconut (or powdered milk for a slightly different texture)
Optional:
- 1 tsp vanilla extract for flavor
- A pinch of salt to balance sweetness
- Chopped nuts or chocolate chips for topping
Instructions
- Prepare your pan
- Line a square or rectangular baking dish (8×8-inch works well) with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Mix ingredients
- In a bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and desiccated coconut.
- Add vanilla extract if using. Mix until fully combined.
- Press into the pan
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared dish.
- Press firmly with a spatula or your hands to make an even layer.
- Sprinkle nuts or chocolate chips on top if desired and press lightly.
- Chill
- Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours until firm.
- Cut into squares
- Lift the fudge out using the parchment paper and cut into small squares.
- Serve and store
- Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
💡 Tips:
- For a slightly softer fudge, reduce coconut to 2 ½ cups.
- You can toast the coconut lightly for extra flavor.
- Optional cocoa powder can turn this into a chocolate version with minimal changes.
If you like, I can also give a microwave version that sets in 15 minutes—still just 2 ingredients but even faster.
