There are few recipes I just have to pull out every holiday season, but this fudge is one. It couldn't be easier ... or better!

In a heavy saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, milk and salt. Cook and stir over low heat until chips are melted. Remove from the heat; stir in nuts and vanilla. Pour into prepared pan. Chill for 2 hours or until firm.
Using foil, lift fudge out of pan. Gently peel off foil; cut fudge into 1-in. squares.

followed the recipe exactly, and was disappointed. Using semisweet choc chips made it taste too sweet, i wish I would have used milk chocolate instead. Also this was very difficult to work with but I guess thats comes with making any fudge in general
