1. Prepare the pan: Line an 8¡Á8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
2. Melt the chocolate: In a medium saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, butter, and salt. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring
constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
3. Add vanilla and pistachios: Remove the pan from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and half of the chopped pistachios until well combined.
4. Transfer to pan: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining pistachios on top and gently press
them into the fudge.
5. Chill: Refrigerate the fudge for about 2-3 hours, or until fully set.
