NO COOKIN' NECESSARY CHEESE FUDGE



No Cookin' Necessary Cheese Fudge image

My kids love to help mix this up with their hands (so they can eat the fudge off their fingers afterwards of course) -- or you can use a mixer with a dough hook. All ingredients should be at room temperature. The recipe can also be halved but this freezes beautifully so don't hesitate to make the whole batch.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before using. This will help it to blend smoothly with the other ingredients.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can check the temperature of the fudge by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the fudge forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Don't overcook the fudge. Overcooked fudge will be grainy and crumbly.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it. This will help it to set properly.

Conclusion:

Chili cheese fudge is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture, rich chocolate flavor, and just the right amount of spice, this fudge is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
