Prep. Line an 8 X 8-inch casserole dish or baking pan with parchment paper.
Melt the chocolate. Put the sweetened condensed milk into a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Mix in the chocolate chips and stir until melted and smooth. Microwave for another 30 seconds if its not melting. Add in all but ¼ cup of the chopped Reese’s and mix well. Work quickly, the fudge starts to set really quickly.
14 ounces can of sweetened condensed milk, 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, 4 king-size Reese’s packs
Assemble. Pour the chocolate mixture into the parchment-lined baking pan and smooth it out quickly before it starts to set. Top it with the remaining Reese’s.
Set. Allow the fudge to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until set throughout. You can put it into a refrigerator for a quick set, but do not leave it in the refrigerator for more than 5 minutes.

Storage:

To Store: This fudge is best stored at room temperature and will stay fresh for up to 3 weeks.
To Freeze: Store this fudge in the freezer for up to 3 months if wrapped well and placed in a freezer-safe container. Allow it to thaw at room temperature before serving.

Tips:

Be sure to use sweetened condensed milk and not evaporated milk. The fudge will not thicken up or set with evaporated milk.
This fudge is best eaten at room temperature. It will melt if it is heated and chilling it will dry it out quickly.
If you prefer a smoother texture, make your fudge with Reese's Creamy Peanut Butter Cups, but if you're looking for a bit of crunch, try using Reese's Crunchy Peanut Butter Cups in your candy.
I used an 8x8-inch baking dish to make my fudge, but you could use a larger 9x13 size or smaller one too. Just remember that the fudge will be thinner in a larger dish and thicker in a smaller dish.
If you choose use a 9x13 dish, double the recipe so your squares are the same size when sliced.
Feel free to spray your pan with nonstick cooking spray instead of parchment paper.
