How to make chocolate fudge

The recipe for fudge can easily be adapted to your tastes. Do you like nuts? Add chopped nuts (like walnuts or peacans) for a Rocky Road taste. Maybe you don’t like marshmallows. That’s ok. Omit them and add only the coated candies and sprinkles. Do you only like milk chocolate? Use only milk chocolate. Do you like dark chocolate? Or semi-sweet chocolate? Use dark chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate! Do you want to give it a bit more flavor? You can add 1/2 -1 tsp. of vanilla extract or chocolate extract (this is optional).

Easter Fudge Recipe

Directions

1. Line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper.
2. Add the marshmallows and 1 cup of chocolate m&m candies to the bottom of the parchment lined pan. Set it to the side.
3. Get out a microwaveable bowl. Add the chocolate chips, then microwave, and melt the chocolate.
   Microwave the chocolate in the bowl, just until the chocolate chips are melted.
   TIP – (The time will vary by microwave power – microwave it a few minutes at a time, check, stir (only if needed), and repeat until chocolate chips are melted).
4. Use hot pads when removing from the microwave! Bowls tend to get hot.
5. After removing the bowl of melted chocolate from the microwave; Pour the sweetened condensed milk into the melted chocolate and stir it with a spatula. And stir in the mini-marshmallows.
   Do this by working quickly.
6. Then pour the melted mixture with the marshmallows over the candies (previously added to the lined pan). Lightly stir with a spatula and spread over the entire pan. Do this quickly.
7. Add the rest of the candies and sprinkles to the top. Spread or press lightly into the mixture if needed (to adhere it to the fudge).
8. When cooled slightly, add it to the fridge to finish setting up.
9. Let it cool completely before putting it on a cutting board and cutting the fudge. Wipe the knife clean in between cuts. I used warm water and a towel.
10. Cut the fudge into slices.
11. Plate it and serve!

Recipe Notes – Be sure to read tips and notes before beginning the recipe. You will need to work quickly after melting the chocolate.

Tips For Cutting The Fudge –I find it easy to cut the slices all the way across horizontally and then go back to cutting all the way across vertically to create the fudge squares. Leave the fudge on the parchment, while cutting it on the cutting board. Then you can easily move the cut fudge onto a plate by sliding over (by slightly and minimally touching the edges of the chocolate) while removing the parchment paper.

Tips for storing the chocolate fudge

Are you serving the fudge later? Store it in a container. Keep the fudge in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve it. Keep the fudge in the refrigerator for two to three weeks. Use a food storage container or cover the plate with saran wrap.

Easter fudge is a quick, easy no-bake dessert that can be made the night before or the week before you need it for your celebrations. You can enjoy this recipe for fudge anytime just by adapting the ingredients.
