Pet brand fudge

[Roland]

I have a simpler recipe for fudge that makes the best I've ever had homemade.

2 (12-oz. pkg.) cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips  
1 (14 oz.) can Sweetened Condensed Milk  
1 cup chopped walnuts  
1 teaspoon vanilla extract  


Directions
LINE 8- or 9-inch square baking pan with foil.

COMBINE chips and sweetened condensed milk in medium, heavy-duty saucepan or double boiler. Warm over lowest possible heat if not using doubleboiler, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat; stir in nuts and vanilla extract.

SPREAD evenly into prepared baking pan. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm. Lift from pan; remove foil. Cut into pieces.

This is super simple.  I have modified it a little by using only 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips and 1/2 cup white chips.  This makes it firmer and more milk chocolately.  You can also use some rasberry chocolate chips, or even add flavoring.

Around the holidays, I make up a bunch of this to give away at work and to friends.  It usually doesn't make it home from work.

(I resent this because the 1st one had gobblety-gook added when I hit send)

I haven't made this, just found it online.  It does name Pet as the condensed milk to use.  This is a big recipe, 5lbs.  Good for holiday giving?
