Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for fudge layer)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ⅔ cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for cookie dough layer)
  • 1 cup heat-treated all-purpose flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 to 3 tbsp whole milk
  • ½ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, plus more for topping

Method
 

  1. Melt the chocolate chips, condensed milk, and 2 tbsp butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring for 4 to 5 minutes until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tsp vanilla.
  2. Spread the fudge into a parchment-lined 8x8-inch pan and chill for 10 minutes until the top is set.
  3. Beat the ½ cup room temperature butter with the brown sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in 1 tsp vanilla, the heat-treated flour, and salt. Add milk a tablespoon at a time until a soft dough forms, then fold in the ½ cup mini chips.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the chilled chocolate layer and press into an even sheet. Scatter extra mini chips on top and press them in gently.
  5. Chill for at least 2 hours until completely firm, then lift out, cut into 16 squares, and serve cold.

Notes

Chilling time is not included in the prep or cook time above; plan for at least 2 hours of fridge time before slicing. If you've never heat-treated flour, spread it on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes, then let it cool fully before using.
