This is an incredibly easy recipe that's great for parties or gift giving!
Ingredients:
12 ounces 70 percent dark chocolate, chopped or quality chocolate of choice
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 Tablespoons butter - unsalted
Pinch salt
1 cup shelled pistachios or your favorite
Optional: chopped tart dried cherries, cranberries or other of choice
Directions:
Melt the chopped chocolate, condensed milk and salt on slow, low heat. Add butter to melt
Put the nuts into a freezer bag and bash them with a rolling pin, big & little pieces make an interesting texture
Add the nuts to the melted chocolate mixture and stir well
Pour this mixture into a 9-inch square foil tray, smoothing the top.
Let the fudge cool and then refrigerate until set. You can then make serving size by cutting into small pieces approx. 3/4" by 1 3/4". Divide 8 by 8 lines to yield 64 pieces.
Once cut you can store in the freezer, no need to thaw just eat chilled
Note: I use the disposable foil trays with the paper lids. Can also double recipe in same pan for extra thick fudge pieces. So decadent - I can only eat 2!

Special note: Ghiradelli Dark Chocolate = 60% = my favorite & the pistachio with cherry is a X-mas tradition in our house . . .

I got this recipe from my mom many, many years ago and have made it ever since. I microwave the ingredients instead of using a double boiler. It's the best fudge ever and isn't sugary like so many recipes can be. I use walnuts.

Sorry Gal, I did not get your other post until just a few minutes ago. I only post during down times at my office. Had two tiny pieces of fudge last night about 9:30. Waited as long as I could and it was so hard not to get more!!! Thursday is coming. The hard part is pulling the huge amount out of the freezer and cutting up in bite size pieces for the family. I will not be able to resist crumbs, licking my fingers at the end and of course the messy knife I will use. Oh boy.

Microwave tip given in this video is to allow the (carry over) heat of the bowl to continue to melt the chocolate while gently stirring.
Thanks SusieLong for your original post. Many will indeed enjoy this shortcut!
Would love to hear some feedback from those who will be trying this recipe for the first time - and if you have other recipes for easy fudge to share.
