Tips:

  • Prepare Your Baking Pan: Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring it extends up the sides for easy fudge removal.
  • Use a Heavy-Bottomed Saucepan: This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the fudge from scorching.
  • Don't Overcook the Fudge: Cook the fudge mixture until it reaches the soft-ball stage, which is approximately 234°F (112°C). Overcooking can result in a grainy texture.
  • Let the Fudge Cool Completely: Allow the fudge to cool completely before cutting and serving, as this will help it set properly.
  • Store the Fudge Properly: Keep the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks, or in the refrigerator for up to four weeks.
